    Upgrade from my HD 280 Pro's

    I've always been happy with my 280s until now.  I recently picked up some Beyerdynamic DTX 102 ie for my wife and they are way better than my 280s in every way.  The 280s are extremely bright and I never noticed how much it affected the quality of the music I listened to.    They gotta go.
