I bought both planning to return one of them after couple weeks. Now I don't want to return either of them. I listen to almost every genres, and both seem to excel at different points, but they are relatively similar. I guess I answered my own question..but still can anyone encourage me to return one of them or suggest a different solution?

Personally, I would use the SR60i as a home pair for every genre except for classical and the D1001 as my portable pair since it has a shorter cable and is more comfortable (and partially closed).

There, that's my reasoning on keeping both.

Have a reason, you shouldn't need to ask other people about your own preferences

i think they are pretty different in their sound. i've tried em both myself, but i personally preferred closed phones. plus i think the denons are more comfortable

I have both the D1001 and SR80s (which were essentially SR60s with bowl pads). I also have SR325is and Senn 650s as my home cans. Having two or more pairs of headphones to switch between is fairly common.

I think you should keep your SR60i, and sell me your D1001 for $50. But that's just my opinion.

Well, If you want to keep them and are able to... then just do it. You can always sell either/both later when you don't want to have them.

cheers!

There's every reason to keep both. One's open, one's closed. One's on the bright side, the other darkish. One's a Denon, the other's a Grado. One's portable, the other's really not. One looks stylish and modern, the other looks so dorky it's cool. They're both extremely high performers in a relatively inexpensive class. They are both among about a dozen headphones given five stars on HeadRoom. They're both on HeadRoom's top ten list (yes, I'm a HeadRoom fanboy). Need I go on? Do it!

Two different flavors, cheap enough to keep both and enjoy.
