Same price range, rave reviews on both sides. Can someone give me the pros and cons of both of these? I believe they're neck to neck contenders at this categories.

Note that the MX760 is harsh initially but improves with burn-in. The PK3 is more aggressive and has a more forward sound, making the headstage feel 'closer'. It has slightly tighter/stronger bass (thought definitely not basshead amounts). It is also fairly bright - generally reminds me of the Grado sig. The MX760s are definitely more 'sennheiser' in sound - a bit more laid back, darker, somewhat smoother with burn-in. |
