V-MODA's Forza in-ears actually sounded good to me at RMAF this year.

They definitely Trump my CX-300 (gen 1).



Thanks for the suggestion! However, with shipping to Switzerland they would cost $120 (at least from that website). I would like to spend a little bit less than that.

STAX SRS-2170 all day, every day.

I did consider STAX but that would mean a new amp and all and I didn't want to have to stick 2 amps on my desk.
  Just look for the most forgiving headphone.
J-Pop generally sounds like ass and really revealing headphones will just emphasize the ass.
*insert some lame Keijo pic*

So HD800 are bad for JPop? They're quite revealing aren't they.
 
Anyone have experience with K712 or K7XX? I was considering getting them to replace my AD900x (I use these for JPop mostly).

Guess we're on the same boat! LOL

p.s. I use an AKG Q701 but the 2khz peak will ruin your day once you listen to smoother headphones. It's sweet, but it's unnatural. What were your issues with the AD900X? I always wanted those, but the a900x were cheaper.

Just comfort mainly. I hate the 3D support thing they use but other than that I really love the sound. The K712/K7XX looks way more comfortable to me and if they sounded similar I would definitely buy them.

SRS-2170 is already the headphone + amp.
 
Well, I had the K7XX but looking back now, they weren't that exciting. HD650 is more exciting.

Oh I meant having to stick another amp onto my desk along with my current one. I'm also buying a tube amp relatively soon which would mean I would have a total of 3 amps on my desk which is not ideal for my tiny desk :)

Oh that's a shame well I might look into the HE400i then.
