upgrading from hd497s
I just had a thought. Am I better off buying one headphone that is a jack of all trades or should i buy two $150 dollar phones? One for relaxed music and one for things that need more punch.- soltari1

upgrading from hd497s
I am looking to upgrade from my hd-497s to something in the $200-$350 range. (I also have about $400 for an amp/better source) My tastes are fairly varied and I have a tendency to crush on a particular genre for a while before moving on to something else. I need a phone that can handle...- soltari1

Shure E4 cold feet
I am also a little gunshy about upgrading my portable rig from a hd-497 to the shure e4c's. I have grown very accustomed to the level of bass from the 497's, but I need the isolation and portability for plane flights/dorm room and so on. How big of a difference will there be?- soltari1

sound signature of hd-497 vs 580/600/650
Obviously the 580, 600, and 650 are technically superior to the 497s that I have now, but how do their sound signatures compare? People say that the 580/600/650s are laid back. I have never noticed this with the 497s so if the 580/600/650 series is about the same as far as how forward the...- soltari1

Headsave Classic or Shellbrook Pimeta
Which of these two amps would you get to power senn 595's or 580's? The classic would cost me about 180 with the AD8620/10's and a 24v power supply. The Pimeta costs 200. My source will be a chaintech av710 so the rca inputs of the classic aren't that big of a deal. I listen to alot of funk...- soltari1

ER-4S, hd-497, hd-580 comparison?
Daycart1, aspects of the sound signature makes you prefer the 580 to the ER-4S? Any other opinions on these two phones? JohnRich, do you like the sound signature of the ER-4S better than that of the 580 or do you just prefer their portability and isolation?- soltari1

ER-4S, hd-497, hd-580 comparison?
I plan to run it off of an audigy 2 zs (I'm a gamer and a college student so at the moment I can't to do better). Will the SR-60 be an improvement to the 497? Also about how much would a decent amp cost? If I do get an amp how are the ER-4S compared to the 580s?- soltari1

ER-4S, hd-497, hd-580 comparison?
I currently own a pair of hd-497's and after a great deal of lurking have decided to upgrade to something in the $120-$180 range. Just from reading other similar posts it would seem that the 580's are the best deal at this price point if you already like the sennheiser sound. (though I would...- soltari1
