I have a new X3 2nd gen player and am using CAL cans which i really like only had them two weeks (moved from the JVC HA-S680) but i have ordered the AT ATH-M50X as i feel the player deserves a better set. I got them and the right side not working so returning to amazon. From only listening to one side and they could have been faulty as well but the bass seemed really boomy and drowning out vocals, again this could be a fault but as they are being returned are there any better options?
I like the sound of the CAL, they need to be closed as used for office and commuting and dont want IEMs (ordered the Trinity Delta). Mainly listen to Metal / Rock I like seperation on the instruments and vocals to be clean especially on female vocals. I like bass but not too overpower. Budget is £150 / $230 but for something special i could push this a bit.
Looked at DT770 8o ohm and nearly cancelled the order for the M50X but the reviews were so good.
