Not even that. i feel the 555s to have much more neutral mids. the m50s mids are recessed. Musicians playing in front of you just don't sound like that of the m50s. the highs are peaky and one-notetish too
If I were to nitpick with the 555s, they might need more inner detail and a finer grained sound and maybe tighter and deeper bass but I wouldn't want them to have that tubby m50 bass wich is too much in the lower midbass region from 40 to 80 hz

M50 may be more neutral in the mids and treble, but the quality of those frequencies is not as good on M50 as on HD555. |
