Hey everyone, I am contemplating on getting the M100, however I want to hear a few of your opinions on how it is for heavy music. I listen mostly to metalcore and hardcore music.
 
some examples bands are:
1) Bullet For My Valentine
2) As I Lay Dying
3) A Day To Remember
4) Of Mice and Men
5) Issues
6) Volumes
7) Attila
8) Parkway Drive
9) Memphis May Fire

Honestly, I think m100s are a bit bass heavy for that, I'm not sure how accurate the bass is compared to the m80s, since I've only used those and not the 100s, but they seemed a bit too slow for faster metal. I like quicker bass for metal, but the mids on the 100s would be pretty nice for it.

Thank you for your input! Hopefully more people can provide me with their experience so I can get a more clear idea.

I wouldn't get the m100's they do not respond fast enough for blast beats and fast double bass sections I've spent a little time with them and the lp2's and really like them but mostly for dubstep and electronic music... I find them muddy when music gets fast...

Thanks so much for your input. Do you or does anyone who read this comment have any recommendations for a headphone around the $300 price range that is great for the type of music I listen to?

For metal I usually grab my m50's or by grado 225i's...
