Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

Hey Nick, thanks for the info!  The place where I bought my Grado 
pair also sells Sennheisers and I'm really starting to look into 
them just to try another brand.  I'm also impressed with how much 
you like them so I guess I'll give em a shot.  I need a pair of 
headphones that can take cranked volume and not distort bass but at 
the same time give me pretty highs and mids.
