Well in under a month since I've joined Head-fi, I've picked up the following starter cans:
ER6i, HD280, MS1, and waiting on a used PIMETA to arrive *rubs hands in glee*
Now all the cans have been really really good to me so far, but I can't seem to find any of them to be good for choral, classical and opera. Opera sounds a bit too "bright" on my MS1s, while the HD280 managed to round off (roll off? is this what you call rolling??) the treble power of poor ol' Pavarotti such that I don't feel that famous high C as much as I should. The ER6i's I find to be uncomfortably "close" for opera....
Any recommedations on a good headphone for this genre? If I get the MS2i, would they be as bright as the MS1s? I am looking at HD580/HD600, and maybe trying out some Beyers and ATs....

Thanks from a newbie!
