Headphone Upgrade(s)

[hongsc]

I'm thinking of upgrading my headphones (AT A500 closed cans currently) with the Audio-Technica ATH-AD700 (open cans) and my Ipod phones with the JVC HP-FX55. Good upgrade(s) or not worth it? Links provided.

wouldnt call the AD700 an upgrade, just a different more open signature. The ipod on the other hand... YES PLEASE.

Aside from the different signature I'm thinking it is a step up.
