Hey there.
I could need a little advice from you guys...
Looking for a new pair of ultra-portables for the library. At the moment I'm using an old pair of PX-100 and already owned V-Jays, which I like quite a lot but they're broken.
So it's time for new headphones... and I'm quite stuck between the possibilities.
- AKG K422, they did get quite good reviews and I like that they're open (in terms of comfort)
- Beyer DTX501p, quite new and didn't find much except from postrock's impressions:
LINK The question stands if they're identical to the Soundmagic P30 - which are half the price!

- PX-100 II ... would be a no brainer but I'd really like to get something new.
- JVC HA-S500 ... much discussion about those. Don't really know if it's just nice for modding or if it's stock / out-of-box also good!?
At the moment I'm leaning towards the DTX501p as it seems to be comfortable, has good mids, solid bass and decent isolation... all of those things are quite important to me.
Any suggestions?
Thanks a bunch and best regards.
