I didn't appreciate the "recessed mids" until I heard the HE-5. Then it was undeniable.

Is anyone using this phone strictly for dance, techno, hip-hop music etc.? After reading this thread, no one seems to think the mids are recessed, but can they still match phones which are consider to have great mids? (eg. AD2000, HiE5 etc.) Mids are important because that's where music lives. I'd hate to loose the great mids I've learned to love, but admittedly the AD2000s could go deeper with more groove, even if I lost some of the bass detail and speed the AD2000s have.
Well... I have a bit of income coming in this summer from various tutoring and intern gigs, so I pulled the trigger today on a brand new pair of Denon D7000 from J&R - the price came out to $593 with free shipping, and they are scheduled to arrive in the middle of next week. These will be my first pair of truly expensive headphones. I'll be placing an order in a day or two for a DAC and an amp.
Words cannot describe how excited I am. This makes all of the work more than worth it. Happy summer, everyone!

Well done, and an interesting tidbit I just noticed; for the next DC meetup, we now have the potential for a stock J$, a stock, and a marklmod setup to compare.
I'm going to be a cheapskate and get the FUN now that I'm not traveling as much.
edit: typo
dude. seriously?
go to radioshack and buy an adapter!
They came today! Finally!
That is the good news. The bad news is that I don't have a single available source in the house to accommodate the 1/4 jack of the D7000. My Audio GD DAC and amp are still in transit. I don't think I'll get a chance to listen to them until the middle of next week, at the earliest.
