Reading about the AKT5p sure sounds like it is the real deal, but a little rich for my blood considering my portable use is on a bus. I'm seriously considering having an Oppo PM 3 cable made by PETEREK that would allow me to use them with the Onkyo. I may just wait and see how the KEF M500 does single ended. I guess my other concern is the PM3 being large to wear in public. I used to feel like an idiot with the NAD HP50 so while the PM3 looks much nicer, I wonder how big it really is. Haven't seen one in person yet.. Thanks to all for the suggestions!
I'm also wondering if the MDR 1A will respond well to some parametric EQ cuts to tone down the bloated bass. Other than the bass bloat it is actually a fairly nice sounding portable.
