As far as I'm concerned nothing is lacking in the headphones. Criticize your own basshead tendencies, not the headphones. PLEASE! Here we have a headphone that actually does bass right compared to most other dynamic cans... sub bass extension all the way down to 20Hz, no midbass hump, and you're calling this a defect!!
I'm sure what is lacking: Your appreciation for high fidelity bass. That's fine, but when you criticize the headphones for your own faults, or the crapola recordings you listen to...
P.S. get a pair of Koss KSC-75 or something, that should take care of the crappy recordings. If you really feel they're great for most music, spending an additional $20 for Koss to listen to poorly recorded music won't break anyone's bank account. People seem to expect the impossible around here, that a pair of high end cans should make bad recordings sound good.

Wow fewtch, you've got a real diplomatic way of saying things. First off, I hate your attitude. That condescending tone is freaking annoying, as if you're the only big dog around here that has golden ears. Well I don't, I love my music, I love my DT880s, and you are so full of it if you think my music is all bad quality recordings.
There was nothing confusing about my post, and you know it. I said that it was great with anything I threw at it, it was just that when the song was bassy and fast, it was still great, but it wasn't the best sound I thought I could find.
Any maybe we should be criticizing your flamewar tendencies, as well as your abilities to hear too much bass in anything you listen to. Maybe its you with the problem, not me. I never accused you of being a high/midrange fanatic, so keep your labels off of me, you pompous twit.
God, I have one little complaint with a pair of cans that I find otherwise perfect and the resident bug eyed crazed fanboy jumps on top of me and starts clawing away. Back off fewtch, unless you want this thread to fall apart.
I am so upset at his attitude, I'm sorry.
I love the DT880s, and no one will tell me different. I will reiterate that it fails to recreate the atmosphere that is right for certain bassy fast paced music, but that music is a small part of what I listen to, so the DT880s is nearly perfect, but its one
defect is keeping me from saying the cans are perfect.
Maybe you're right fewtch. Maybe you have the only valid viewpoint on these headphones. Maybe we should all listen quietly as you run around these forums championing the DT880s as the king of the world, and anyone else who owns them and says different should be crucified and beaten senseless. At any rate, I'm done with you, and your flaming tendencies.
