I have had the Senns for about 9 months and as great as I liked the sound, the build quality and ergonomics were enough of an excuse for me to make an impulsive airport buy of the SE310...
Without going into too much detail, the SE310's sound great but I was fiddling around for ages trying to get the best fit so I could hear the bass...then realised that the CX95's had spoilt me...I got used to a lot of bass so much so that my music sounds like the bass has been removed! Damn I need my bass back!
But I am also realising how decieved I was by the CX95's (which I thought were amazing) because they have a bass that waters down the treble and mids.
Overall, I am unhappy as I'm not getting the involvement I need from the SE310s due to lack of bass - the trebles and mids are great (something the CX95's didn't have). I listen to progressive trance where bass creates a strong atmosphere.
I feel impulsive again. This time I have my sights on the SE530s! Given that I have already spent 144 UKP on the 310s...and I can get the 530's for close to 150 UKP 2nd hand...the total outlay on the headphones of 300 UKP is about the equivalent of the price of new 530...I think its justified (plus I'll have a spare pair!).
Question is: will the 530's solve my woes? (taking into account the amount I am restricted to spending?)
