I was wondering which of these phones would better suite me. I've owned the HD650 on two separate occasions but didn't have an amp for them either time. So they were, like everyone says, slow, dull, and kinda boring with out proper amplification. Will running them balanced make them fast enough for rock? I liked the tonality of them alot, they just were fairly uninvolving underamped.
I have not heard the d7000, but I've heard the D5000's. I liked most everything about them except there was a strange midrange echo or hollow or reverb or however you want to describe it, and I couldn't stand it. Does the D7000 eliminate that at all and still keep the fun factor of the 5000? By fun I mean it had great bass and nice highs but that midrange was not good. Maybe it's just the closed headphone 'sound' but I don't know.
So I'm wondering which of these phones would fit my taste better. I listen to mostly classic rock, jazz, swing, fusion, etc. I like a fun sound but it has to be smooth and 'hi-fi'.
Thanks!
