wow, so many posts, thanks everyone! the klipsch s4 being bass light i read in a german review on hifi-forum.de but boomy bass is no good for me either i used to "use" the senn hd25-1, nice fast response in the low end and terrible fit. (my poor ears) the overall sound sig i liked...

ok, re0 is interrsting. Can someone post a link to a good deal for them?

i am looking for an upgrade to my senn cx500 (out of a d2+, mostly 192 mp3). i listen to classical (more chamber) music, jazz w. vocals, ambient and trance. so i need the detailled treble (NO sibilance plz.), clear mids and tight (somewhat deeper) bass. isolation and comfy fit is...

ok, so no bother thinking about the su.fi 5. shigzeos description i found difficult to follow...
