Do the Koss Porta Pros have soundstage? (alien.top)

Just curious about this since they kind of look open back but I'm not quite sure? I don't have them in person so It's harder to tell.

you have either never heard a good soundstage or you are listening to music which is badly mixed or your music doesnt make use of soundstage.
Listen to some Ambient or large classical orchestra using an ATH M50 at first and then swap the phones to an HD800s and listen to the same music again. if you still dont hear it, you are lucky, as you dont need to spend anymore money into expensive gear.

most music is badly mixed/wasn't mixed for a soundstage with headphones in mind

having large drivers that make it seem as if the sound is coming from further away from your head is really not what actual staging is all about... but you do you
