My sennheiser 457's recently died on me, so I'm looking for a new pair. The 457's were a lot better than any ones I'd had before, but the low end was a bit muddy and overpronounced. I'll mostly be using my new pair with my portable mp3 player, but also at home with my computer (soundblaster live soundcard), and listening to vinyl as well.
So pretty much I'm looking for a headphone that sounds good without added amplification, the hd555's worry me here. Mostly I listen to heavier music (good bass response), and electronic music (good throughout frequency range, bright clear tones, etc). I don't mind much about sound seepage, so I suppose I'd prefer an open design but this doesn't matter as much to me. I've also been looking at the Sony v6's, and any other recommendations are of course appreciated. Please help!
