Your question has inspired lots of feedback. Something you didn't mention which can make a load of difference depending on your cans, is the nature of the hood. Fleece with a windbreaker outside sounds way better than some police/airport worker industrial heavy-nylon hooded coat.
I think you've already picked, though so this becomes moot.
what is a V6/7605? Is it a hybrid?
Scrypt, thanks for the welcome. Much learning to do, experimenting, and as you noted: spending.
When I picked out my MDR-605's, I listened to many cans up to 200 canadian, about 130 $US. The closed ones all sounded echoey, like I had cheap boombox speakers next to my ears. Maybe it's just my ears (or the hollow space between them!). I bought some MX500 a couple of years ago and hated them. Same boomy sound. I returned to the store trying later ones thinking it might have a been a bad batch. They were the same. Is this very common, that some love what others consider craptological?
Unless I find something else before I can afford them, the Senn 580/600's are on my To-Get-First list. I'll need two, as my sweety loves good sound too. Now... do i get a meta42, or build my own...?
