Dear fellow head-fiers,
I am looking at adding a closed-back pair to my existing K501. So far, based on my budget (or what's left of it
) and preferences, my search narrowed down to these three models. The problem is the following: while Bayers and AKGs are available in stores in Moscow, so I can go and listen to them, Audiotechnicas are not sold at all. So, if I go for them, I'll need to make a "blind puchase" by ordering them online, based solely of what I've read. So I am very interested in hearing your thoughts on:
a) A900 alone: are those good cans? How comfortable are they? Are cans large enough to accomodate an average (or slightly before average) ear? How would you describe their sound?
b) head-to-head (should I say ear-to-ear
) comparison of those three cans, if anybody had a chance to listen to them in one place.
c) did I overlook someting worth having a look at in the closed-back world?
