I absolutely agree with you on the front face presentation. I find the K701's pretty aggressive (still smooth) and very alive sounding, very sparkly, quick, immediate, punchy. They take your attention 100%. They're not laid back headphones like HD650's which you can have on your head and read a book at the same time. You just can't focus on anything else but music. I would have expected such sound from Grado's rather than K701's by only reading descriptions of headphones.
Thanks for the replies. 'Front face presentation' is probably not the right phrase for it.
I have added k550 to the list to give the k701 a bit of competition.
Will play a few songs from the artists you guys mentioned and see how I go. Will keep you guys updated. Thank you.
