I saw him last August in Toronto. Near 3 hour show. Enjoyed it all, and so will you.

I hear the first

love these headphones. continue to enjoy them  

Quote: i use the K701 with e7/e9 combo and enjoy it thoroughly. that being said i haven't listened to any other decent rigs

I listen to mostly classic rock bands (Beatles, Zeppelin, Queen etc). I'll give almost anything a chance, could you guys suggest some stuff for me? (bands/albums)

is it your neck being weak or just the HP's uncomfortable?

my triports were my only HP's for about 2 years. they were sufficient, and only recently i had to repair the jack. they're not terrible headphones, but they were over priced quite a bit.

i'm sure they're decent headphones, but you could do better for a lesser price.

Quote: unfortunately no, the only hifi audio shop in my city doesn't carry any of the models i've mentioned, and they don't carry any im really interested in

well, how loud does your friend have his music?

the only issue with the D2000's is i've heard they leak sound in and out. if i was listening at a moderate level (i never really go past half on my itouch with my other portables [triports ]) would the leakage be much of a problem?

Quote:   well i do have the E7 as a portable amp/dac. yes, the D5000's are nice, but im not so sure i can find them within my budget so the D2000's would be the alternative

Quote:   i do care about the look a tiny bit. the reason id rather not get them is because the look, and i want something full sized, not compact

yes, closed is the reason. i know that doesn't limit my choices a whole lot, that's why i made the thread to get many opinions

i'm not looking for something compact. i'd like a full size pair of headphones.
