This is getting ridiculous already. Sorry to seem so wishy-washy.

On the Atrio vs. Denon comparison, as Warrior says earlier in a post, the Denons have a very slight edge over the Atrios in delivering crisper highs and mids. But, if you own Atrios, like them a lot, and don't want to spend any more money, stick with the M5s. Just my POV. Having both is a real luxury, no necessity, for sure. I keep A/Bing them this afternoon (doing it right now, using the Microshar amp) and I really just can't decide which I favor more. I guess am going to call it a draw, and keep them both. As I said in my previous post, I am getting some irritation from the silicone tips, so I ordered up some orange foams from Shure, and see if that helps on the comfort front. I think I have weird ears, so I need something to squish and conform to the inside, and on that front, the silicone sleeves are less forgiving than the Shure olives, for example.
