cool, thanks. i'm going to try to head to b&h or j&r in the next few days and check them out. might even want to consider akg k242hd or k240mkii and swap the pads for larger velour pads? that would deal with the comfort and drivability concerns, but i'm guessing its not a big tradeup in terms of SQ over the k240s.
The Sextett (600 ohm K240) is generally very well-liked around here. Your experience may be different because you were having trouble driving them, but I'm pretty sure that most people would say that the K242HD and the K240mkii aren't as good. You could consider just getting a better amp - there are plenty of Sextett amp threads floating around the forum.
