thanks for the advice! I'll try them out to see if I notice the lack of soundstage or the treble to a degree where it bothers me, I'm fine with a punchy bass though     Quote:

so basically the m50's are significantly more equalized but for overall sound quality probably only slightly better, so if I like loud treble then either choice should be fine, else go with m50's correct?

can't you just balance that with an equalizer if I end up not liking the high trebs?

I'm asking for specific reasons as to why they are better.. I can try the mdr-v6 out in a nearby store, unlike the audio technica's, and spending extra money needs justification, if they're almost double the price they should be almost double as good

the main problem I have about buying the V6 is what I just again read at a different forum, here's the quote: "The EQ curve of thr 7506 are more fatiguing and my ears ring after wearing them a long time."  (the 7506 is the pro version of the V6, almost the exact same sound)  and yeah after...

Why is that though, I don't quite understand the difference between the two, other than the price of the m50 being almost twice that of the V6, what about their sound quality makes them better?  I keep hearing about the V6 seperating the tones too much, and that it equalizes different sounds...

I looked at those for a while, the only reason I'm not fully considering them is because of their higher price, and from the looks I don't think the build quality is nearly as good as the sony's.  I don't understand exactly what is better about them, other than the style being "different"

I don' have an amp yet but I might get one at some point in the future, and I want these to last as of right now: -sony yp-z5 -thinkpad t410 -lg flatscreen tv I don't like the in-ear ones, they tend to fall out of my ears when I'm moving around, and I never find them to be particularly...

Hi I'm trying to decide on a good pair of headphones as my first proper pair.  I own a pair of cheap skullcandy earbuds, and the turtlebeach earforce x1(horrible $40 gaming headphones), I'm also a college student which puts limits on what headphones I could get.  I was considering grado sr80i...
