Do you prefer 880 over 701?

May I offer you my commiserations. I own the HD800's and love them. I'd hate to part with mine.
My No 2 favourite headphone, and the one I'd strongly recommend to you is the Shure 1840. $500? Hunt high and low on the web; buy a used pair, or stretch that budget.
If you go through the Headfi classifieds you'll find things like the Grado PS500. I have these too (am about to sell mine), but I wouldn't recommend them if you like the HD800's.
If the 1840's is a stretch, buy second hand from Head-fi. You'll get much more for your money.
Good luck,
Bob
