Yeah Kinda fell in love with AKG and Grado.

I look forward to getting more in the future. Need a better solid state amp first. And a way to switch between headphones without unhooking every time would be nice.

hmmm without unhooking would be nice..but woudln't that introduce more parts and what not into the whole setup. pretty expensive to get one that won't have an effect on sound. why not just unhook. 

 

Sennheiser

Ultrasone

Beyer

Beyer will prob be next.

I had beats studios and sold those to get the Q701s and I had a set of denon which were not comfortable at all so I sold those as well.

My buddy has a set of Sennheiser which are not bad but didn't put out my favorite type of sound. I still may get a higher set down the line.

I love my banana hangers lol.

I have to say I am really blown away by the M-AUDIO AV40s. Probably the best computer speakers I have ever head in terms of listening to music.

 

The q460s sound good but the cord they come with is wayyyyy to short.

Q701s sound amazing. I feel like they are harder to drive than my grados.

they sound very very analytical. if u see reviews for the SRH440's...tehse are stricly monitor-refrence headphones. they do a good job of making music(not...rap or hip hop). u just hear a lot of thigns you could miss :) the bass impact isn't really there but for rock Shure is great :)

a lot of people do since the price is very very high. but none the less. are still a very good set of cans that are compared to the HD800 and LCD-3's as each has a quality that is good.
