I was thinking of an SR as well, but I fell like (for my budget) that it sounds a bit weird. Idk what it is, or if it's just me, but i like the sound (and looks :DD) of the higher end SR's better. I tried one (SR 300e) the other day and no doubt its nice to play but I just didn't feel the sound. But when I get a bigger budget I will definitely get an SR :))
