I'm looking for a pair of headphones to complement my HD650s + Darkvoice 336SE tube amp for rock and electronic/dance music. I'm not a basshead, but I would like a decent amount of bass - the DT880 is probably good enough for me. I was going to get the DT880 (600 ohms), but after going through the Grado HF-2 threads, I'm wondering if I should get the HF-2 instead.
Could someone who has heard both of these cans (not necessarily the 600 ohm version of the DT880) give me their thoughts about which would be better suited for me? I want something with less of a rolled off high end like my HD650s, but without sacrificing too much bass (a big reason why I've stayed away from Grados). Does the HF-2 have comparable bass to the DT880s, and is it $150 better than the DT880s for my purposes?
I am also open to other suggestions for headphones.
