100+ Head-Fier
Based on the input here I ordered and just received my Porta Pros. I have Senn 600s which have served me well. I upgraded over the years as new headphones came out and thus far I haven't heard anything that sounds as good as the 600s. I also have Stax Omegas with the SRM-1 MKII. These are my reference cans. I needed something for 'on the run' duty. These cans work!
These little tarts perform quite well. They are clear and the midrange is good - music sounds like music. The bass is acceptable given their price point and the highs are not shrill. I have read the various threads about mods - the kramer one in particular - and will check that out, although I think you have to separate the ear pieces from the frame? I didn't see a black plastic thing with everything stock out of the box.
Having said that, these phones are ridiculously good for the price.
