if your recordings are harsh sounding, the headphone doesn't try to hide it, the headphone isn't really well suited for low quality mp3 listening.
from www.amazon.com
the depth of bass is very good, the headphone has good bass response down to 25hz as i verified for myself by running test tone sweeps, so the bass is there, just not as much "in your face".
from www.amazon.com
the volume gets as loud as i need it to....in fact on some tracks i need to turn it down but on some older recordings (pre mid 90's) when the mastering compression stuff was not so extreme, the songs

did not require a headphone amp even when using my ipod classic.

i put my 701s in a drawer, covered 'em with sweaters and left oregon's out of the woods on repeat, loud, for 10 days when i got them.

AKG K 271

from www.amazon.com
but, it is not like you need a headphone amp for them the ipod drives them just fine.
from www.amazon.com
since you'll most likely be listening to this from your laptop or mp3 player, this is good as it avoids unnecessary bulk.
from www.amazon.com
however, if you use them in a hot environment, the earcups will make your ears sweat, so beware.

these headphones are great, sturdy, durable, comfortable, and are of great quality!

AKG K 240 Studio Professional

$137.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
the headphones are extremely comfortable and were made even more so when i added a set of nice cans headphone covers (the stock pleather ones got a little sweaty and sticky when i wore them for more
from www.amazon.com
my only complaint about this new pair of "around the ear" phones is that you tend to sweat a bit after wearing them through a movie.
from www.amazon.com
i don't get sweaty ears wearing these, which is what i usually hate when vinyl covered ear pads, and they are comfortable enough to wear for long periods of time without taking them off-i've had them
from www.amazon.com
oh, and i also feel compelled to mention that dave chapell sports these puppies in a couple acts on his show (where he's rapper)
from www.amazon.com
i have been running a project studio for around 5 years now.

AKG K 81 DJ Consumer

$66.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
I actually jog with them and they don't slip at all.
from www.amazon.com
The only thing is that they are a bit uncomfortable in long-term situations and they make my ears a bit hot/sweaty, but that's really the only drawback.
