Denon have spiky high? For what I remember about Denon, I swear they have smooth high, to the extend that I don't like.

The LA2000s. They are very good all around phones. They can rock you and they can serve up classical as it should be.

If you like a lot of exaggerated bass, you should get Ultrasone Pro750 or Denon D2000

it is not terribly spiky,but it can be so with certain recordings.  the treble is not super smooth.
I am talking about the D5000 ofcourse...

Agreed.  Especially if you get the right wood and damping, they are some of the best all-rounders you can get -- they sound great with a lot of things, and there isn't much that they sound bad with either.  They certainly win at rock, pop, and techno, and they're pretty good with classical too.
 
I don't think you can be disappointed with the bass on the LA2000s.  The only thing the O.P. might miss from his K702s is the soundstage -- while the LA2000s have a nice soundstage, I don't think it matches a good open headphone like the K702s.

True the k702 does have a huge sound stage but I have never felt it lacking in the LA2000s those wood cups do wonders to the soundstage.

Thank you all for the responses.  I have used the eq in foobar to up the bass a few db but these headphones start to distort fairly easily with too much gain.  I think that I will hold on to the K702's since a lot of people seem to regret selling theirs from what I have heard and I really do love their sound with most music.  I will then just sell my d-10 and RE0's to finance a new set of headphones, probably right around $300 used.  It looks like the LA2000's will be out of reach, but what about the other modded D2000's   MD's right?  I am not familiar with the deficiencies that the stock D2000's have.  Also, what about the difference between modded D2000's and the non-modded D5000's?  I will start reading up on those
 
Thank you everybody

Alright, I am familiar with the Markl mod now and I already have the materials for that so I think this is a done deal.  I think that I will just get the D2000's and mod them, unless I find a super deal on some D5000's.
 
Thanks,
Neil
