Interesting. Between this one and One more's mk 802, which one is in your opinion the better headphone, leaving portability and Bluetooth (and looks!) aside?
Ah yes, the hard question - now the bargain is easily the MK802, very nearly as good sonically, same price, plus Bluetooth. And since Bluetooth is a tough thing for great sonics, it makes the 802 more rare and valuable. But bargains aside, the On2 sounds better, more hi-fi, and then not only the aesthetics but the comfort etc. come into the picture. It's worth reiterating the comparisons between on-ear headphones, and just how colored most of them are. Innerfidelity for example was very impressed with headphones like the Beyer DT1350, the v-moda M80/XS, and the Beats Solo2 to name a few, but those are very colored compared to the On2. The interesting thing for me was when the On2 was released it was $300 USD, and I thought NO WAY is anyone gonna buy this, an unknown on-ear headphone at that price, unless it sounded like a Sennheiser HD650 etc. It's probably close enough to the 650 sound, but the saving grace was when they dropped it to $200. Now I feel totally comfortable saying it's likely the best in that price range, and there are good headphones in that range - the Shure 840, the Brainwavz HM5, the AKG K553, and perhaps a couple more.
