Hey team,
I tend to have a preference for slightly bright, extremely transparent and detailed presentations in my headphones - I love the K701, I have an HD800 on the way, and am also devoted to my Sony CD3K. The problem is, none of these are particularly forgiving of bad recordings, which, as we all know, are a sad fact of life.
I was wondering what sorts of recommendations folks have for a pair of headphones that sounds great but tends towards being more forgiving of poor source material. I used to own an HD650, but ended up selling it because it was just too dark for my tastes. Is there some sort of middle ground? Do the HD600s retain the smooth nature of the 650 despite being less bassy? Are there other 'phones I should be looking at?
Look forward to hearing your thoughts!
