I'm looking into open headphones that can be used for gaming and sometimes music (the music being mostly rock, rap, and electronic). So far, I've narrowed it down to the 555s and the 485s. The main thing I'm looking for is a good soundstage, and for gaming, good bass response. Now, the 485s are significantly cheaper and probably better unamped, but the 555s probably have better detail and overall clarity.
TL;DR - Which has better soundstage and bass response? Will be unamped.
Since there are no stores nearby me where I can hear both, I depend on the advice of Head-Fi to give me an idea of how they both sound.
Thanks
