After almost a year of ownership, I can say with extreme confidence that I have been unable to find equal performance from any closed cans at the 300 dollar price-point. Absolutely none.
Sure, there are cans with better bass response or isolation. Hell, there are many cans with a better, more secure fit on my head. Not to mention, the K550s are humungous in physical size and can be a tad difficult to pack at times.
But as far as roominess and realness of soundstage and competent lows, mids and highs, the K550s stand alone. They are absolutely astonishing. Especially if we are referring specifically to rendering mids and highs.
Anyway, yeah, this is less a conversation and more an exclamation on my part.
