I bought the Koss DJ Pro for about $85 at best buy (slight impulse buy, thanks head-fi). I'm happy with the sound and the comfort (I got replacement m50 pads), but the cord is really bugging me. I use these at home and listen on my computer, and the cord drags on down from the table and pulls down. Today, I see the creative aurvana live headphones for $10 less than a while ago, and I have free 2 day prime shipping. From reading the comparison review on HF it seems that they are evenly matched, but at the time the creative was $100. So I would imagine, for 60$, these are very high quality headphones? I plan on returning the Koss DJ pro (I kept the receipt for this reason).
as for sound, I'm not a huge bass person. Music I listen to range from Radiohead, coldplay, to paramore, vanessa carlton, and some classical piano. Nothing I would consider bass heavy. So clarity in the mid range is probably much more important than a heavy bass. From what I've read, both sets are good for this kind of music, so I'm not terribly concerned.
one more question, I think the stock pads on the creative are fine but can I replace it with m50s? is it better? and for $60, is it a pretty economical decision to replace the Koss?
Thanks,
happy holidays all.
