Hey guys! Here's the quick scoop. I have a Schiit Asgard 3, Schiit Bimby, and a set of Grado sr225e cans as well as some Koss Porta Pros (yes, with the taxi pads).

I absolutely LOVE the koss phones because they're such a damn joy to listen to, but they lack fine detail, punch, and quickness. I used to love my Grados because they had all of what the Koss was missing, but now that I've been spoiled by the eargasms that the Koss offers, I can't stand how bright and fatiguing te Grados are!

I want to sell the Grados for another set of critical listeners. My budget is 400 bucks. Here's what I want from the new cans:

- open back
- sweet, rich, unfatiguing sound
- punch, detail, quickness

I basically want the pleasure of my Koss phones, with the "ability" of my Grados for 400. Any options out there?
