I have the Sony V700DJs and love them- they look great too.
The Pioneers did not punch as much as the Sonys did imho. Never tried the

You should not purchase anything without listening to Sennheiser- they make
great stuff and their better headphones go all the way around your ear so
you can listen for hours without pressure on your ears- it's great!

oh, check out www.headphone.com I bought my Grados from them and a
headphone amp. Highly reccomended store- I'm just a customer.
