Hi there
I currently own a pair of SR-125 and I'm looking for closed cans to complement them. Seeing all the M50 hype, I read on those, dug around and narrowed my choice to the DJ1s after reading the M50 vs HFI-580 thread (would pick the DJ1 over the HFI-580 because the pads can lay flat, which is a big plus as they will mostly be used on the go).
They seem to fit my requirements but I have no way to try them out and am afraid that I might miss out on something closer to what I'm actually searching. I'm basically looking for the same aggressive sound I love from my Grados (and how female vocals sound oh-so-incredible), but a bit bassier and closed.
To make it into a question, can anyone that has auditioned both tell me if they sound alike?
I'm open to any other recommendations, but please, I don't want every HPs in that price range (~150$) thrown at me, propose if you think they would better match my description.
If that can help, I mainly listen to electronica (Designer drugs, Bloody Beetroots and such, to pinpoint my preferences a bit better), old school hip-hop, and a bit of classic rock.
Finally, thank you for your time
