What is your third set for more bass?

I've got a Darkvoice 336i and an Oppo 980. Currently, I'm using a pair of Grado SR-80s. I really like their more aggressive sound, and it seems that the AKG K701 are similar. Is this true? Would someone who prefers the "Grado Sound" likely enjoy the K701s more than the 650s? |

There is much more attack in the sound without sounding harsh, everything has a much bigger presence and clarity, the bass has much more punch to it aswell. I would love to try out the K701's balanced but worry that the treble would be too harsh, the 650's are definitely warm sounding can's but going balanced has definitley pulled out those hidden highs, so could this be a bit of a treble overkill for the K701's? I have to say if you want more energy from your 650's give the HR Balanced Desktop a thought or another balanced amp. |
