I haven't finished this thread yet but I have a quick question. I was set to get the SRH940 but the build issues and reported bass hole put me off. Then I was set on the K-550 but the bad fit for small heads like mine (I use my headphones on the smallest headband setting) put me off.
I used to have the stock T50RP but aside from the amazing mids I was put off by the bass and treble, and also a few comments from people that no amount of modding makes these more than a little better than stock. I felt they would still be too dark for me.
Can someone tell me comparatively how much better are these than stock? How is the bass compared to the M50 ( which has too much for me - new white box version) and the SRH440 which is just right with good punch- better when paired with a tube amp. I am basically trying to upgrade from the SRH440 to something closed but better in every single way for pop and light rock (Rod Stewart etc).
I am not able to listen to anything before I purchase and am deciding between the Mad Dogs and the DT880. Amps and sources in my sig.
Thanks
Johannes
