so, i'm pretty happy with both of these headphones. but of course, after reading around on the forums..i've come to find there's so much more out there. i just bought an iAudio M3 and a PA2v2 and i want some new phones that will really benefit from the amp.

to get an idea of my music tastes, some of what i'm most interested in from more to less: the beatles, radiohead, rage against the machine, muse. a fairly wide array i assume.

so considering what i could get selling both of these headphones combined..(160-190?) plus about 50 bucks..what should i go for? i'm open to trying IEM's, open or sealed.

thanks in advance.

Well, pick which one you like better. If you prefer the SR-80, go for the SR-225 or something similar. If you prefer the HD 555, HD 595 or 600 seem to be logical choices.

well, i like both of them..but for different reasons. the SR60's tend to get a bit uncomfortable after a while. i have modded 414 pads. any idea other ideas?

Go all out and get the HD650's.

HD600 or HD650.

Radiohead is *incredible* imo on amped HD600s. They're great at portraying the vocals; I love listening to OK Computer on these - it's not depressing because you're just sitting there with a huge grin on your face thinking your phones are great

Haven't heard HD650s yet - they're on their way!

Wow, those look quite nice. A lot of work and TLC gone into them, I'd say. If you prefer the Grado sound to the Senns, go for it!

working with cantsleep. gonna buy the modded 225's. whatya guys think?

 

[ilovesocks]

Somebody else PM'd him too. Don't let these get away!

Go for Beyer 880 or Grado 325.

I'm still not able to make Senn HD580 play rock the way they should (and SR-60 does), and my Radiohead recordings keep complaining. Even $20 HD201 does it better...in a way. So you might want to skip Senn 580/600/650 line.
