Damn, you say you prefer the L2 to the 550s in every respect...except hard rock?
I listen to metal probably 70% of the time (black, death, tech, ie lots of cymbals), and post-rock the rest of the time...and I'm finding the treble pretty fatiguing with this kind of music. It's perfect for something like 65daysofstatic where you can appreciate all the high programmed drums...
I've got choice paralysis here now, do you guys think something else would suit me better (and I have to say the 550s look a lot less 'toy' then the L2, though still nowhere near as good as the L1)....and perhaps try the 551s (portable 550s). They're nearly half the price of the L2 as well...
Or should I just appreciate what I've got, shut up and turn down the top band in eq (and is there anything I'm defeating the point of by doing that?)
First pair of good quality phones in a long time so I'm getting into the whole experience...of course in the middle of exams
