I WAS IN THE PROCESS OF PURCHASING TWO SET OF HEADPHONES, ONE CLOSED BACK AND ONE OPEN BACK, OR JUST ONE DECENT PAIR, I WAS LOOKING AT THE DT880 PRO, WOULD THOSE BE A GOOD CHOICE OVER THE AD700 AND M50?

CAN YOU TYPE ANY LOUDER I DIDN'T QUITE GET THAT!

  Also this question should be in the headphone section, but alas I digress.  If you plan on using a headphone amp then go for the DT880.  If not, then the AD700 and M50 will offer a better value for ya.

I forgot some of the people here can hear things others don't..........Im more concerned with SQ than i am with value

Okay, so what do you plan to plugging your headphones into and will you be using a headphone amp?  Will you be using them for gaming, music or both?

strickly music listening, plugged into my marantz, sony es  cd player ,or yamaha pre amp.

Well then, I'd say you have all the bases(amp wise) covered, so go ahead and get the DT880.  I think you'll be quite pleased with them.

are you saying any of these components are capable of giving me the same results as a headphone amp would, they are the 250 ohm phones. they sound quite well to me

Quality stereo receivers and preamps should offer performance that is close to that of headphones amps.  Though, a dedicated headphone amp is always recommended.
