Well, it happened. I finally heard the V600's. I was at a Circuit City with a pair of Koss KSC-50's in hand for $14.99 (since my beloved Sportapro's are showing their age) and I stumbled up to the listening booths to check the new Avril something-or-other and Our Lady Peace. I was familiar with the OLP cd, so I knew what it should sound like (Bob Rock produced it, so its going to sound huge, kind of like Creed). Well, for rock and pop I really like the sound of them-- lots of bottom end and good crisp highs. Mids seemed adequate but nothing exceptional. I did like the soundstage-- to me it seemed a little wider than a pair of 7506's I had.
My question is, why the heck do these sound good to me? I've used 888's, Sportapros, Portapros, Senn HD497's, Sony 7506's and I liked these V600's alot. Not necessarily more than the others listed, but I definitely liked them-- very musical to me (at least for the rock and pop stuff).
Anyone else have a similar experience of listening to and liking a pair of headphones that are almost universally dogged here on the boards?
