I've been looking through a lot of best headphone threads and it seems that the RS-1i are the best choice for metal. I listen to a lot of 80s thrash, 80-90s death metal and third wave black metal. I also listen to other metal subgenres like heavy metal, doom metal and other music genres such as hardcore punk, progressive rock, psychedelic rock, and post-rock to lesser degrees. With that being said, are the RS-1i the best choice or are there any headphones in the $500-$700 range that perform better? Treble is of utmost importance to me, but bassy headphones are welcome too so much as they don't get muddy in the mix.
