You've owned teh 598 and ma900 and 612pros? which are most comfortable? How do their sound profiles compare? How about the 990?
I think all those are bit too expensive for me, the D200 I only see for $300+.
Right now my main considerations are:
DT990
558
MA900
I think I'm going to have to go with whichever one is the most comfortable since they all seem pretty highly recommended. I'm leaning against the MA900 due to build quality, price, and possible discomfort since it rests against your ear on the inner part, ie not deep enough, but really I can't find enough on it to make a definitive call for or against it. There aren't many comparisons of it against the 558s.
As for DT990 vs 558, I really find conflicting opinions on it but I think I'll probably lean towards the 558 for being more comfortable. I hear the DT990 adds more 'flavor', the highs might be too much but I think that can be EQ'd if it's really an issue.
Well the MA900 is definitely the most comfortable.
If recommend the ma900. Extremely comfortable and they have wonderful imagery and soundstage.
Id get the Fidelio X1 or MDR MA900 and call it a day. Neither need an amp.
Heres the MDR MA900 appreciation thread:

but 612pro doesn't have that kind of bumps . so I found 612pro is more comfortable comparing with k701,q701.
Is that the only difference? Because my issue with the Evo's is that the driver pad touches my ears (the evo's have bumps but they dont bother me, i dont notice them. i think), if they are basically same ear design then I think I'll avoid them, as i want something more comfortable.
