I am absolutley sorry for draggin this on. But i just remmebered i was also looking at some AKG 240 as well. For my tastes. im going to gues they aren't nearly as good as the 580's right

 

For AKG 2xx series, Its much better to have an amp. You ll like hfi580.

Thank you sooooo much DVDRey :) I've more or less seen and read through every single HFI 580 thread there is on head-fi and the majority on other places. However gettting personalized responces has been great. I have just purchased them off of B&H for $118 with free 2 day shipping :) A great deal if i may say so myself :)

Of course I will! From what one thread says. These are atom bombs(as in awesome) @ 600+hours of burn in........ it took quite a long time for my Shure's to reach ~500+hours...onwards!!

That reminds me of when I bought my DJ1's. Got them over the regular HFI-580 because they were cheaper by 20 bucks. haha

The comfort on the 580 is terrible. Tough earpads, hard clamp, and a piercing pain feeling on top of your skull because the padding on top is hard & useless. They are pretty good for all kinds of music.

Beyer DT250 velour pads + Senn HD 650 headband = ultimate comfort on the HFI 580.

The Ozma 5 is a rebranded Ultrasone HFI-550 (= HFI-580 = DJ1).
