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...

well i went into guitar center last year when i really got into more hi end audio, and i said what is your best headphone, and he said beyerdynamic dt 770 / 80 ohms.  So this isn't just a beats thing, i think hi end audio in headphones is being looked at a little more through your average consumer. 

Quote: pottery class lol

Quote: perhaps, and maybe your ears had to adjust to the s-logic also, and changing settings probably made your ears notice some things you didn't before.  

Quote: sorry it is moon audio.  

i have a detachable pro 900 aftermarket cable.  What other ultrasone headphones will this plug into?

i don't game with headphones, but if i did, i wouldn't use any of the headphones i have including pro 900s.  I would pick up a pair of ad700s if i wanted a gaming headset, or some turtle beach or something geared towards it.  just me.

everyone will have a different opinion on which is the best headphone.  I like all the headphones suggested, you can't go wrong with any of them.  My preferences :  ultrasone for dubstep,  denon for house/trance.

Quote: ya i know whatcha mean, you don't know if you just got used to the sound or not.  i have the stock cable and a moon audio cable, and i have a/b'd them a lot and hear a difference that i don't really have to think very long about whether i hear difference or not.  burning in , i...
