Quote: i just don't find it a "necessity".  

well i don't agree with either view lol.  i don't think they need a bass boost, or an amp.

Quote: sorry, i was vague.  I meant what is your take on buying them, since you are thinking pro 900, and own hifi 2400, i would assume pro 2900 would be in there somewhere as an option you may have thought of.  i haven't heard them either.  you looking at a closed sound? you said you...

Quote: whats your take on the pro 2900?    

Quote: not yet, i haven't really decided on buying another ultrasone yet either.

Quote: i didn't find out.   Yea it just plugs in , no screwing, the screw part of the plug is just an extended jack.  But it fits snuggly into to plug, it doesn't fall out or anything.  makes it easier to pack up too, you just unplug the cable, instead unscrew unscrew.

I would test both of them if possible.  but my vote is for the dt 770s because of versatility of sound, and i find them just "clearer".  If i was going to pick the xb700s, i would probably get the xb500s cause i find them more fun.   So i would buy dt 770s and xb500s.  Dont underestimate the...

Quote: very interested in your review of them.

Quote: that would be the first time i heard someone say that...my 2 cents

Quote: apparently the blue dragons don't tame the highs, (this is just through discussion, nothing more), but they make the bass more present. (silver dragons doing opposite).  But then again you might not hear anything.  

i think this is a discussion about bloated bass vs accurate bass?  The more hi-fi headphones get, the more accurate, less bloated bass you get.  Problem is if your listening to rap or electronic, bloated bass sounds pretty good half the time.

i remember when i used to think of dubstep as a sub-genre of reggae.  whether it is or not, i didn't really care.

Quote: i got the silver dragon   $250.    The blue dragon is $150 i think.   I really don't know if it is right for you or not.  Some people think cables don't do anything and it is mumbo jumbo.  It is a lot of money for a cable.  I really do like my cable, it smoothed out the spectrum...
