SO I got my sennheiser HD25 1-II's, about 3 weeks ago because apparently they were great for metal, which is all I listen to. I really like them, but I almost always prefer my Etymotic HF5. This is because when any sound at all leaks in, it sounds much worse for me. Also, I feel like the vocals are very far away for many bands, and I end up turning the volume really high so I can hear the vocals, my favorite part. I feel like I am going to go deaf because it is so loud. I also want to be able to hear drums though. The HD25's beat the HF5 in many ways, but I don;t know... I was thinking about exchanging for the Grado SR 225, because of the up front ness. But I have a question, does anyone else think that the vocals from the HD25 sound far back? The volume thing is my biggest issue. Will the Grados do better? Any other headphones I should consider?
