I remember the ADDIEMs being far clearer than the Turbines. I heard the ADDIEM long before I got my Turbine. The Turbine has a lot of bass but lacks clarity. The soundstage/imaging is distorted in more ways than one. I noticed another distortion which might come from mismatched left and right...

Quote: Originally Posted by Rip N' Burn Just got my Turnines, and I have the IE7's. I'm burning in the Turbines so it's not fair to make a comparison as of yet. What I can compare is the 'right out of the box' sound. Turbines have more controlled bass, better imaging, and sharper highs...
