Hi all,
 
I'm in the market for new headphones, coming from KSC-75 and Sennheiser HD201.
I've shorten the list to following:
 
Audio-Technica ES55
Beyerdynamic DTX-501p
Soundmagic P30
 
Anyone has experience with all/most of them and can compare?
 
My pmp: iPod mini v2 + iMod + JDSlabs cMoyBB
 
Music: mostly electronic (classic like Kraftwerk, JM Jarre, some modern like dubstep and dnb) and some rock.
 
Many thanks

the beyer is pretty good, and has very spacious soundstage for such a small closed headphone. if you are a basshead, it will not be enough bass for you. do not know the others.

Thank you.
I like bass but I would not consider myself basshead. And cMoy has pretty good bass boost that I can tweak with different resistors if needed.
I was 100% into beyer, until I found es55 for the same price and then came second thoughts.
