[QUOTE="gifs, post: 96653, member: 480"] I have both Sennheiser HD515 and HD380 Pros. I probably couldn't tell you which one has the flatter FR but the HD380s are definitely more bass-heavy and more detailed. They have actually spoiled my mp3 collection which contains a lot of lower quality rips. They reveal every imperfection. The 515s (and hence 555 and 595) is more comfortable than the 380s, but that is probably in the nature of a closed design that needs to seal around your ears tightly. The 380s are not uncomfortable, the 515s are just extremely comfortable (to me anyways). You are welcome to have a listen to them if aren't able to audition at a shop. I bought the 380s on amazon for 90 pounds on a Christmas sale. I use the HD380s to listen to music at work. It is an open plan office, so I required closed back phones. I also use them whilst playing my electronic drum set where they help in reducing stick noise from the drum pads. [/QUOTE]
