AKG Q701. I listen to a lot of dubstep myself. The Q's don't have booming bass like a subwoofer, but they have quality bass, meaning you can hear all of the bass without distorting the mids and highs.

Does anyone else agree with this or have a different option/opinion on it? Thanks.post #20 of 237/28/12 at 1:30amQuote:I do admire the Q701, but i would give Ultrasone 750 Pro equal consideration.

Thanks for the post. Which of those two Ultrasones would work best for me (HFI 2400 or Pro 750).
