bump again?

Another shameless bump???

Quote: I've tried both, and I'm playing them overnight and throughout the school day. I'll check after.   Quote: they're not bass-head or hip hop headphones by any means but when I first got the them bass and the lower ranges of the spectrum in general were totally fine. They...

Bump? :S

I got my new headphones (AKG K240 MkII) 2 days ago and obviously started listening to tons of music on my ipod. The only previous headphones I owned were $10 sony earbuds. The comfort on the headphones was outstanding, and so was the quality. I actually had a bass for once!   Now, the...

Lol what do you mean by "fun"? More distinctive sound signature? My friend told me about the DT780s but he said they're mainly for electronic music.

So I supposed the quality between the 2 is almost identical? If I'm going for comfort I guess I'll choose the AKG 240s then.   Btw what about Ultrasone HFI-580? how do these compare to the AKGs in quality? They seem really comfor

Bump?   Btw is comfort an issue with the Srh 840s? I heard they were REALLY heavy

Without any consideration given to price, which one of these headphones is the best? I listen to rock(classic, prog, hard,) and metal mostly, with some jazz fusion. I won't be buying an amp, and I'll mostly be listening to the headphones out of my ipod.   Thanks

Thanks for your help. Almost all professional reviews I read said that the sound quality for HD555 was really good though. Is it just personnal preference for you?

My avatar was just one of the stock pictures of the 8 i could choose....as i said the only previous headphones ive had are $30 earbuds

Hey guys, my first post on head-fi, here it goes:   I know that one of the biggest pet peeves on forums is new people asking questions that have already asked many times. I know these types of threads pop up quickly, but all of the ones I saw here from searching were pretty ambiguous, so...
