I like my 598's for their comfort and soundstage, but I really wish they were more engaging. I don't listen to classical, neither do I listen to heavy metal or electronic, but I listen to everything else. I feel like these headphones need a little more "oomph", to get me headbanging, or make...

1) Is the HD598 worth the 60 dollars more over the 558? Even if I don't plan on modding my 558's?   2) Someone told me the dt880's are a step over the 598/558, but at the same time has a different type of sound. I'm not an audiophile, so when people start saying audio sounds warmer/fun/dark, I...

Looking for some new headphones after I'm getting sick of these Sennheiser's thin muddy noise compared to my JVC HA-S700 which died recently. I figured I'd break the bank to go with my new computer.   I watch all genre's of movies, and listen to all all genre's of music minus electronic (if...

Bleh, meant to put this in recommendations section. Sorry

I bought a JVC HA-S700 2 years ago and the wire finally died on me. I loved them. Bought them for 30 bucks or so at the time. Now I'm shopping for new headphones similar to those, but I don't want the same headphones again. I liked the fact that they were very flexible (folded in for travel...

I can't decide. The 201's are 8 dollars cheaper, but apparantly the S700's are better quality. I'm on a budget so, any money saved is great, but I'll spend it if it's justified for the S700's.   I plan to use them for everything (music/movies/games) until I buy specific headgear for...
