Best to hear both. K553 are great and I wouldn't have looked for other closed if AKG provided better isolation. HP50 do have a laid back sound but it is still clear and nothing sounds slow. K553 to me are not closed, semi closed because isolation is atrocious.
I'm keeping them. I've only listened to them for about an hour so far with the new X3. They sound good to me, and couldn't beat the massdrop price! Down the road I'll had another pair, or maybe an open pair. Next up is a decent pair of IEM's.
