Do you need the inline mic and control

If so, it is virtually impossible to get a third party headset (mic/control) that will work with Sony mobile due to its unique configuration

The only option is to go with Sony's own headsets

Added on June 11, 2012, 5:56 pmBro, you can't even do justification for the
AKG K702, Sennheiser HD650 or even the Dennon D2000 with the
FiiO E10 let alone driving it straight from iDevices and Galaxies.

Why not? okay, so maybe the 300 Ohm HD650 is out. what about the rest? 65 ohms isn't that hard to drive, is it?

250 Ohm version bro. And I'm not looking for a desktop amp.

AKG K702 requires good amp. Why not try AKG K550? It's closed, but try it before saying "but it's closed"... Hehe.
DT880 shines in vocals, but the sound isn't as open as 990. There's a Head-fi post explaining about the difference between the DT770/880/990 too.
HD650? Be sure to have a good amp! Tried HD600? You may end up paying less because some people prefer 600 over 650.
I'm a detail hunter...therefore I go for Tesla drivers. And so I stick to T70 (for now

).
I'll consider those too. Amping is currently the biggest issue. Thanks anyway

acoustic rock i'd recommend DT880.
with your 2k budget, get the DT880 and another amp/dac to go along. definitely will bring up the sound and experience to another level. i would recommend the 250ohms version, its not portable friendly but it gives you room for growth should you want to upgrade your dac or amp in future.
I see. Thanks bro! Erm.. I'm not planning to get it that soon. Need to test out the options first. Thanks for the offer btw
