RE: Closed-back Headphone With Sound Like AKG K240?

While not the K240 sound (I own a pair), I use the Audio Technica ATH-M50's for location recording. They are easy to drive, play louder than you would ever need for a location environment and comfortable. Definitely on the warm side with rich full bass. It can purchased with a straight cable (that is what I use) or a coiled cable. Like with any equipment, if you have a reference point, you know what you have. I am curious what you will find that is similar to the K240's. I know lots of people that like the Sony V6 headphones. They suck. I can't stand them as the sound they produce literally hurts my ears. I've tried several pairs of the V-6's and they all suck. Keep us posted.
