I think the HE-500 may be the way to go because it is not quite as full as the HE-400, has a little more of the snap of the HD700. The LCD-2 Rev 1 (not heard the Rev 2) is fuller than the HE-500 and you may like that as well. I would probably go with the HE-500 in your case though.

Thank you
Hey David, thanks again for the wonderful work and as far as I'm concerned, one of the best the review/comparisons on the net! (and I do spend too much time surfing tech and audio stuff)
Quick question for you. I have the HD700's which I really do like and have been looking for a complimentary set of cans. I've narrowed it down to the HE500 and the LCD2r2. I've had the HD600, HD650 and HE400 and prefer the HD700 over them (open, airy, fast, solid bass but a little sharp at times). I liked the fullness of the HE400 but there seemed to be something missing. From what little I've heard of the LCD2r1, I really like them. A little less polite with some good slam. I've read so many good things about the HE500 though but will not have a chance to hear them. Basically looking for a can with some more (good) bass slam, fullness/richness in the mids and a little less sharp. Any thoughts between the two as a compliment to the HD700?
Thanks! M.
