I've had my ATH A900xs for about 2 years now, but I've been wanting to get an open pair of headphones, but I don't know which to buy. There are no stores around where I live so I could try some of these for myself, so I need some help on figuring out what I should get.
As for what I'd use them for, I listen to a ton of music (basically everything except rap), play a lot of video games, and watch movies. So basically, I'd use them for everything. I really want a big sound stage and what I'm listening to to be really clear (like hearing different instruments in music, or footsteps in a video game). I'm not a bass head so I'm not too concerned if it is a little lacking.
I was wondering if anyone had experience with any of the headphones I've listed above, or has other recommendations, that would be what i'm looking for. Currently I'm leaning toward the akg q 701s, but am open to change my mind. Also, as a side note, I do already have a mixamp pro with my current headsets, so I'm not concerned about the extra cost for an amp (unless it isn't powerful enough, let me know!).
