Which of the following should I get if sound quality, bass, warmth and a good combination with my J3, unamped, is the most important thing? Or maybe yet other suggestions?



I took my J3 to sample Ultrasone Pro 900 and I'm sorry to report that it wasn't a good fit AT ALL. Denon 5k rules big time with J3.

Ok, choice made than :) But I heard the 2000 isolates not as much as other closed headphones. What about the 5000's?

Part of the extreme comfort this pair of headphone offers (also 2k and 7k) is he fact that it doesn't press hard on your ears. The cushions are very comfortable and your listening pleasure can extend for hours. This degree of pressure might affect the isolation a tad bit, yet bass won't lose a smidgen of its beautiful thump. As you can see, I love these headphones very much :) There's no product that offers you everything no matter how expensive it might be.
