I gotcha. I misread Leng's post. It's surprising that people find the 650's to be better than the D7000s. I owned the 650s prior to the D7000s, and sold the 650s because they weren't doing it for me. But I feel like for some reason I didn't give them the chance they deserved. When I received the D7000s, however, I was much more impressed than I was with the 650's.
I want to approach this carefully, as it may be a mistake to pick up a cheaper pair of cans like the 650's that make up fo the D7000's weaknesses, yet carry weaknesses that the D7000s do not. I think it would be hard to argue that the D7000s are a much more resolving pair of headphones than the HD650's overall. I understand that a pair of $350 headphones may not match up to a $700 piar of headphones, but a lot of it has to do with personal preference. If I've enjoyed the D7000's for 2 years, then I'd say it's fair to say that I find them pretty good.
Mochan, when you say you find the HD650s better than the D7000s, were you able to spend an extensive amount of time listening to both to make that comparison? What detailed explanation can give as far as why you find the HD650s to be better than the D7000s?
