also as another consideration I also prefer when notes or sounds are sharp in my headphones, I really hate it when they sound muddy.

The only problem I'm seeing with the flc8 is the fact that it has an openback design (sorta) I like to be able to play my music however loud I wish or tune out the world around me without having to worry about others hearing my music or me hearing them if I don't wish to. I'm not sure if the...

It doesn't seem like there's anything there right now, although i could always wait for a good opportunity.
