    Need Portable Cans "Grado Style" for METAL

    i listen to lots of metal, of the mreo extreme varieties (brutal death metal, grindcore and whatnot, bigfan of technichality as well). and im honestly surprised no one has mentioned the k81 after 6 pages.... now they definately dont have a grado sound sig, but neither do hd280s. Theyre solid...

    AKG k81 quieter on one side?

    no matter what source i plug into my AKG are louder on the left earpiece, i know its not my hearing cause when i wear the headphones backwards it becomes louder in the right channel. its becomes more pronounced in bass heavy music.

    What, does this only happen to me? Im really pissed off.

    wait youre saying you gety static when you rotate the jack in the plug? becuase lots of plugs do that....solution? dont twist the plug. my sonys did that in my discman, but not in my soundcard, or my phone....go figure. im not trying to be mean, but this sounds like a case of "doctor it hurts...

    Yikes! i guess sometimes i sacrifice accuracy for rhetoric. i find while the bass was there inside, on the go it was a little lacking in the impact in the midd bass region, came in a little close to the ears, and didnt quite clamp enough. Plus at an opportunity to try something different...

    yeah it was the second time in a month , as a skinny white kid, i have a problem with getting hassled by the gangster types. also waht about ath-pro500? they look pretty sleek, and pretty sturdy. i liek the k81, but it doesnt look like it completely covers your ear...which is a no.
