Hello All
My baby AKG K701 is broken so I have an excuse to get a new headphone and I like to try something other than AKG although I love them so much.
I listen to classical, symphonies, quartets etc, so sound stage and quality are very important. I like a neutral sound, that produces sound as they should with no bias to bass or treble etc.
I have my eye on the ATH-W1000X but appreciate that expensive headphone does not mean it will suit my taste. Just wondered if anyone has any ideas?
Many thanks.
PS - I posted something in the AT thread, but thought I might get some other ideas here as that thread is dedicated to AT.
The AT has a very different sound signature to your beloved K701. Why don't you go with the new Q701 instead

Budget : 1000-2000 RINGGIT.
I have a laptop,an iPod touch & a phone.
Usage would be just for music & movies.
types of music : r&b , acoustic , blues , jazz , rap , country , alternative.
personal requirements : closed , noise canceling , use for listening to personal song recordings.
I've looked at the Sennheiser PXC 360 so far but I have no hands on experience with other brands. What are your thoughts?

If you are really into music, BT is a no no
