Well, you'll find "mixed" reviews of practically every headphone out there so take the news with a grain or two...I have not listened to the new T-1 V2, but the reviews seem to be saying that it is better suited to acoustic music, jazz, and classical than the original T-1.
The original T-1 caters slightly more to the tastes of those who liked the old Beyer "house sound" (DT-880, slightly up-tilted upper frequencies, etc...), while providing a smoother, more extended, more refined sound and a bigger "soundstage".
So, either version could be an excellent choice but the V-1 would be the better choice if you listen to a lot of Rock, Techno, and similar styles. Also, the V-2 would cost you $200 - $300 more than the now discontinued V-1.
