I liked my DT880 better anyway but the Ultrasone pro 750 wasn't too bad. Just not as smooth sounding or comfortable. Today I went by Goodwill and found these for $6, quadrophonic headphones Realistic Nova44 (I use them in stereo mode from my Pioneer reciever ):


Modded them to take care of a bit of resonance (foam rubber from dollar store):


Did a comparison between my Ultrasone pro 750. Results? I don't like my Ultrasone anymore, these $6 headphones Kill it. The Ultrasone sounds thin, harsh and flat. The Nova44 is a great can to rock out to! Spent hours listening to Rob Zombie, System of a Down, Otep and others.

Just need to mod new earpads, these aren't very comfortable at all.

Nice one!
Next you should consider getting in there and combining the wiring properly to make both work at the same time, much like the AKG K270/280/290 dual angled drivers.
