I mix hard on ATH-M50s. Verify on Sennheiser HD600's, AKG K-240 MKII, Sennheiser IE6 buds and THESE.

Then I test/verify using ARC 2 on my Mackies with my Adam sub. Then I go to the car.

After all that, my mixes are still sh!te.

No Ed, your mixes are actually pretty good. We can have a discussion on production...

It mostly comes down to training your ears to recognize what a good mix sounds like in them.

^^ that.

I just ordered a pair of AKG 240 MKII's today. I like my ATH M-50's but after reading this thread, decided to add the AKG's to my tool box. I want a lighter set of cans to start my mixes with.

I just got my new pair of AKG 240's and the sure seem bright right out of the box. Do they mellow out or will my ears adjust in time? Should I break 'em in or just wait for the ear pads to conform to my head?

the akg's will break in with use.
just about any speaker will have some breakin time, unless they do it during manufacturing.
