Hi I was looking for a good portable solution for listening with my ipod, I have read "lJokers" portable shootout thread and various other portable headphone threads but I can not find substantial information on these 3 cans above.  I have a pair of AKG K518 at the moment which I use as my on the go solution but I was looking for something with a little more clarity, tighter bass, forward more prominant mids and smooth highs and something a little faster paced cleaner etc.  I listen to mainly electronica, trance and techno etc  I have a fiio e5 which can be used but I would appreciate any information on the above headphones as they intrigue me the most and from the respective companies they come from I expect they might be very good ?!!  Any help or info would be greatly appreciated.  My budget is sub 100 pounds thanks :)

I guess this thread is officially dead, will have to buy all 3 and trade which ones I don't like, see how that goes!  So much for the world of info on headfi "sigh"
