Hi,
I currently own a pair of HD 428s, and I am looking for a upgrade, with my budget at ~$150, as I feel that they are not my type especially for rock. I am looking at the Ultrasone HFI-580s with their huge bass, but with their huge price difference( ~$120+ including shipping since I got the HD428s for $35), I am wondering whether the upgrade is worth the money. I mainly listen to rock, pop and acoustic songs. So here are a few questions about the Ultrasone HFI-580:
1) How is their soundstage and instrumental separation compared to the HD 428s?
2) Are the mids and the highs better than the HD428s?
3) How are the vocals compared to the HD428s?
4) Ultimately, are they worth the 120 dollars for the upgrade?
Thanks in advance, and feel free to recommend any other closed headphones.
