EDIT: Just adding... good soundstaging requires an amplifier with a heightened sense of space, treble extension and air... this is where my Burson elevates the K702 to a whole new level.
1. pioneer se-a1000 - larger stage than a dt880 or k701, though only the select few around here have had them.
2. k701 -large stage tho i dont care for them much
3. dt880
4. ad900/700/500 all pretty close to a dt880 in stage
5. jvc harx900 -largest closed headphone stage

What on earth are you guys talking about? For the 100th time, headphones DO NOT HAVE SOUNDSTAGE!
Recordings may have soundstage. Headphones may have fake spatial effects, due to its design placing the driver too far from the ear. Any set of matched drivers placed on the ear (or in the ear canal) should give you the correct soundstage in the recording, if it has one.

Headphones don't have bass or treble either, it is the degree they project the signal/source. You are simply playing semantics. To sugest that a $1 ear bud (for example) projects the same width and depth of sound as a K701 or HD800 is silly.
