Whats the difference between them and the 700s? And how well do they drown outside noise? And are both of them pretty tight on the ears? Will they fall off easily if not put on perfect? Will something like running have them fall off? thanks

I also listen to a bunch of other stuff, so I wanted something pretty balanced, and these sounded like they fitted what I wanted.

Rock and Electronic stuff. I can wait until I have the money to get both at once, but what I really want is to get some open around the ear headphones. I use the Sony ones for my computer, but the fact they go on my ear bugs me. They start hurting after a while, and get really hot. The...

So pretty good chance it's going to be better?

Right now I have Amazon.com: Sennheiser CX300-S Earbuds (Silver): Electronics and Amazon.com: Sony MDR-V300 Monitor Series Headphones with Folding Design: Electronics Is it safe to assume that the k701s are going to be better then both of them quality wise, even without the amp...

I don't really plan too make any upgrades other then my headphones. I have a mac from like 2004-5 so I can't remember the specs too well. And now that I thik about it, I want open headphones. I already have Earphones that cancel most sounds out already, so it's not too needed on these. but...

I mainly listen to rock, but I have pop and some hip hop that I like. So I'd like pretty good bass. I'm not planning on going out with it too often, but I'd like something that has the option to be used outside. I'm not planning on buying anything else other then the headphones. Features that...
