Quote: Okay, seems legid since it's a different grill and so on. I'll go for the HD558, thanks for the tip. Have a great evening, whenever that is in your timezone!

Quote:   Okay, thanks. Have you done the HD58 -> HD598 foam mod? Results?   Thanks

Quote: Hi,   Thanks for the input. For me it seems like the HD558 is cheaper than the HD555. In what way are they different? Most people have recommended me the HD555, not the HD558. Why?   How is the K240 compared to the Sennheisers?  

I'm getting a new pair of headphones fopr listening at home, as a compliment to my ViSang R03 that I use on the move. I've got up to $150 to spend, and maybe an amp in addition to that. They need to be able to be run unamped from a clip+ though.   Listening style: I would like the sound...

Quote: Hi,     Aw, that's too bad. The E7 looks good tho, and that has line in? I'd definitely like to stay below $100 for the amp

Quote: Hi, and thanks for the input   The HD55 really seems good since I want to be able to listen at a very wide spectra of genres with high comfort, and also they will from what I understand sound better unamped as well. The only negative thing that I see in the E10 is that it's not...

Quote: Okay, how's the comfort? This is very important for me. Will they benefit from amping when I drive them with my Clip+?      

Quote: Thanks for the input! Isolation does not matter, nor does portability since this is going to be for listening at home. If we stop caring about those two think, in what order would you grade these? Also, which benefit from amping? Further, will all of these fit my genres+listening...

So, now I need help to narrow this down a bit!   Shure 440 Sony V6 (might have  too narrow soundstage?) Senn HD555 Denon D1000/D1001 Koss Pro DJ100 AKG K240 Grados SR60i (Fit for the rock and shoegaze, but small soundstage?)     Listening style: I would like the sound to be...

  Hello!     I have been thinking about getting a pair of decent headphones for listening at home, as a complement to my ViSang R03 and PortaPro (Kramer+quarter mod) that I use on the move. The two most important aspects are SQ (of course) and comfort, and my budget caps at $100 for...

Any input here will be helpful and greatly appreciated!   Apart from the E10, is there any other DAC/amp that I can consider?

How about the Denon d-1000? Will the soundstage be too tight?   Is the Koss Pro DJ100 similar?   Would the AKG K240 fit my needs?   Just because they are so legenday: the Grados SR60i?   Are there any other competitors? Thanks!

Quote: Interesting! Would you be so kind as to give me a comparision when you get them? :)    

Quote: Another vote for the HD555! What headphones did you choose between when you got them? Have you tried any other ones lately that you can compare them to?

Quote: Okay, thanks. I like bass and unfortunately it's very important in some of the genres that I listen to. Will they do a decent job with some EQ-tuning?   Quote: Yes, the plan is to find a dealer nearby when I've decided for a few models to try. The thing is that I...
