Hey guys!
I really like the sound of my JVC Flats, but I feel as though I'm wanting more soundstage. Do you guys think the Sennheiser HD Pro would be a good upgrade overall from the Flats?

For soundstage I'd recommend something from the 5xx series in your price range... 598 is best for soundstaging, though overpriced with the enforced MAP at $250 now.  I have them on now and just heard some small string plucks in Der Fliegender Hollander Overture by Wagner and I SWORE they came from the other side of my room, outside of my head!  Not always great to this degree, this just happened a few minutes ago and I listened to those measures like ten times over because I was so impressed by the effect.  They're not always perfect but they are pretty damn good.  If you are looking for ~$100 maybe you can find one of the cheaper 5xx's used?
