AT ESW9 vs. W5000? - Head-Fi: Covering Headphones, Earphones and Portable Audio

Would it be superfluous to get the ESW9 if I already own the ATHW5000? I will use the 5000 with my vinyl set up and ESW9 for work. However if if they are similar enough, it would seems unnecessary to get both with other brands out there. but maybe not... I'm also looking at the PX100... Thanks for any input!

IMO, ESW9 is not similar to W5000
ESW9 sound sig seems to be a bit dark which differ from W5000.
anyway ESW9 is very good !

I have both and agree it's different from each other.
