    Complete Setup for $1000?

    I absolutely LOVE my K601 for rock, jazz and classical. It has enough deep, pleasant bass while still remaining the sparkling, beautiful highs the K*01 series are known for, plus, it's about half of your budget new.

    Are my impressions about the K601 correct?

    DT 880 Pro or Premium (2005)?

    The only difference between Pro and Premium is that the Pro are different comfort-wise. They clamp harder.

    Power cord made a big difference

    I think threads like these (and certain reviewers power cords 'shootouts') are very dangerous.
