Treble was really grainy when I had the XB500 and 700. Seeing as these are supposed to be the best in the XB series, I hope it's a great improvement in the treble department. The XB700 could already blur my vision if I wanted it to, so I would hope they focused more on the treble area in the XB1000.

post #22 of 4761/14/11 at 5:32amSo if they have 70mm drivers, does this mean that they could still be powered of an iPod or MacBook? Or would an amp need to be used to get the full "bass" effect?post #23 of 4761/14/11 at 6:20am- DjAmTraX
