plan on selling the DT880's for either a Senn HD600 or a DT880/600 [or maybe both]

 
David... (sorry for the OT).Be prepared for a bit of a shock if you go from DT880 (of any ohm flavor) to the HD600. I think they are great, but very different. If you're liking the Beyer 'sound' and just want it improved a bit, just go with the 600 ohm. If you are looking for a real departure from that Beyer sound, yeah, well you just may love the HD600.

1. HD800
1. PS1000
1. T1
 
What's best?  
 
The HD800 has the largest soundstage and is the fastest, most neutral and most revealing of the three.  It can hear God's thoughts.
The PS1000 is the most intimate, easiest to drive, and most passionate.  It puts me on stage.
The T1 is the most liquid, most versatile of the three.  It does everything extremely well.  It may be the most musical of them all.

some changes here, my newest stand:
 
1. K701
2. K240 Sexxtetts MP & LP
2. HDJ-1000 (managed to buy original ones, somehow)
3. HFI-15G
4. K240M
5. HD25SP
6. EAH500
7. DD1
 
and YES - the HDJ1000 is THAT good! I bought them last week - used and pretty beaten, but they are damn good sounding - they sound, looks and feels VERY similar to K181DJ.

I love the beyerdynamic cans. Especially the 990's because they handle my taste in music quite well.  I find the 880/250 ohm a bit too analytical, so they are mostly used with any laid back/acoustic/relaxing/vocal centric tracks. They do precision gaming quite well, but since I don't do anything competitive, the 990's stay on my head for majority of the time

but i would love to try a different flavor headphone and maybe switch it up with one of the Sennheiser HD600's since i have never tried their high end models before. I would love a departured/unique/warm sound to get away from my beyers on those brisk Saturday/Sunday nights

, No doubt in my mind that the 880/600 will be everything i need [that the 990's aren't] but throwing in a Sennheiser in the mix might not be too shabby at all

[size=10pt]I certainly understand that (notice the Denons in my lineup). I'm really enjoying the differences and reason they each fit into their respective niche.[/size]
 
[size=10pt]Enjoy![/size]
