@proglover: You could order the DT990/DT880/HD600/HD650/HD598/K702/K702/K601 from Thomann, and then send a couple of them back? Of course you need to pay for all of them... I think that's what I will do when I can justify that I need a third headphone. 
Actually I don't need anything, what am I doing here again? <--giving in to some kind of weird addiction
LOL, if you do that, I'm taking a train to Twente, what a comparison that will be. (minus 702, plus DT48)
No seriously, there's something holding me back about doing such a thing, don't know why exactly, maybe I will some day.
Just bought (almost never) used AKG K501's for 85 dollars incl.delivery (65 euros, marktplaats). If I don't like them, I think I won't have a problem losing them on the FS forum, without loss. Just curious how they sound.
@the_equalizer
that description about the drum sound, sounds good. You need that to hear the little, fast cymbal thingies and bells (they do that sort of things a lot with prog. drumming) with good separation. Not everything to be drowned in muddy, loud base.
