Well I purchased a set of AKG K26P back around October last year do to the stellar review and Headroom and sense been looking for something better for portable use.
I then discovered the Beyer DT231, and the only place I could really find them in stock was a seller in England....Fast forward 4 days they got here today. So far I only have about 30 minutes on them and they sound great
and I am defintley more then happy with them for portable use, and heck I will probally use them for my computer as source when Im not useing the Grado's
Why aren't more people talking about these cans? I always see mention to the Akg K26P's and Sens PX100/200 (to which I tried on and didnt find comfortable) These Beyers are so comfortable its crazy. At first I thought the self adjusting headband sounded tacky at best. I have to admit it is nice to throw a set of cans on and each time they are perfectly adjusted and ready to jam
Now the only negative well not for me per se but for others that do not have amps. The cans are rated at 32 Ohms but they seem rather hard to drive efficiently, I had my Nano on max and felt that was a comfortable listening volume
So if you don't have an amp you may not be as happy with them as if you did have one.
