Hello Head-fi!
After reading through so many threads here, I finally decided to register and post one myself. So I'm looking to upgrade my ES7s and I've picked out a few possible choices. Feel free to make other suggestions as well. I listen to J-Pop / K-Pop and a bit of electronic, 95% of which is female vocals.
AKG K701 + Heed Canamp
Pros
ATH AD1000PRM
Pros
Denon AH-D2000
Pros
I'm leaning more towards the K701 because their look is so appealing to me, but I'm afraid they won't be a good match with my music - while the AD1000PRMs will.
Thanks!

AKG K701 + Heed Canamp
Pros
- Love the look
- I hear the K701 is more fit for classical / jazz; not sure if it will go well with my pop music
- Seems like a risky choice
ATH AD1000PRM
Pros
- Really satisfied with my ATH ES7s (unamped; flac; cowon j3), so this is a safer choice over the K701s
- Doesn't require amp? (verify?)
- ?
Denon AH-D2000
Pros
- ?
- Hear it has a loose fit, my head is more on the small end
- Closed
