Looking for a significant sound quality upgrade from my HD202's.

I'm looking at Sennheiser, in perticular, the HD485's the HD515's.

has anyone had any experience with these as I'm just going off a couple of review sites.

Cheers

i can vouch for the 5x5 range, excellent sound quality, very very comfortable for long usage....disadvantage and advantage is that they are open headphones = you can make them very noisy without putting too much pressure on your ears (its like a pair of speakers I tell ya), but everyone else can hear it, and when there is no noise coming form the 'phones, you can hear stuff outside...

Know if these are any good? Seen a few reviews so far which look promising.

Aye, the 555's are becoming a possibility. I've heard everyone speak so highly of them, and from the sounds of things, its worth forking out the extra doe.

thats not a good thing at all - that just means its your ears taking the full brunt of the noise and getting slowly pulversied :twisted:

Sennheisers more than compare, and when you consider how (relatively) cheap they are....
