Yeah that's what I did with my Beyerdynamic COP and I regret it.

I think I'm a little lost and all over the place with headphones. I'm going to stop by Guitar Center this weekend and test out some known headphones and write down my thoughts and figure out what I want haha.

Yes closed headphones are fine. How are the ATH-MXX series in comfort-ability? I've heard the M50s are somewhat uncomfortable to wear. I'm not interested in the QC15 since they use batteries, I don't like maintaining headphones. Is it a good idea to buy used headphones?

Maybe I don't care about soundstage as much as I thought. I'm kind of interested in the Bose SoundTrue Headphones.

I just want a pair of headphones that have these qualities.   -Comfortable enough so I can just lay my head back on a chair and listen for hours. My Custom One Pros were too bulky and would press up against the back of my chair :( -I listen to all genres of music so I just want to hear all...

What I meant by wide sound stage was that I want a pair of headphones with a "good" sound stage. I've heard reviews knock down headphones cause they said it had little to no sound stage like the M50s, which they are closed so I understand it probably has a bad sound stage.

Are the HD558 more or less comfortable than the ATH-AD900X?

I've been looking for a new set of open headphones since my Custom One Pros just don't satisfy me anymore. I was looking for a headphone that has well balanced sound, a wide sound stage, and comfortable like most Sennheiser headphones such as the HD598 and HD600. Today, I started watching review...

Thank you MalVeauX, I really appreciate your advice. I will most likely take your advice and purchase the Beyer COP, even though they are a tad out of my budget ($175 on Amazon). The volume for the bass had me settled :D  

I owned the Sony MDR-V6 but they broke. I believe it was the cable, something lost connection since it now produces crap sound.   I'm not sure if I want Open or Closed headphones. I'm usually in my room and the only sound I can hear would be people walking down the hallway and my fan's...
