Grados fresh out the box:

Left: Beyerdynamic T1
Right: Sennheiser HD650

^ the fact that they both represent their sound signature AND the characters are actually wearing them is very fitting . Although I'd say DT880 on the left just because it's not fair to the T1 to say it's in the same league as the HD650 IMO.

 

[AlfredWong]

^ DT880 would be THAT elegant and classy? Heh.

 
Just because I don't like/have HD800 so there's HD650. Illustrated by a friend who examined the cans throughly for 4 hrs.

It's only when I go to the >80% of comfortable volume that the music really comes alive most of the time. I don't sustain this volume for long but for the time I spend there, it's awesome. 

This means you need to Eq, or look for an other headphone with a frequency balance that suits better your taste. . Unless you are looking  for head crushing bass. I  consider that when I have to pump up the volume  so that music begin enjoyable, then there's something wrong in the frequency balance.

Explain?
 

Energetic, closed in, and heavy coloration for a brighter sound.
