Glad you finally heard sense! Though saying there the best in the world is rather presumptuous even for you, unless you can back that claim up with definite scientific proof that there sound is measurably the best audio quality in the world

Good for gaming ( when your playing a shooter its easy to pick out where your opponents are ), easy to drive and since they have a falrly good seal they are great for drowning out the kids shows or the neighbor who is always working on his damn cars .
I like them more than the grado sr80 and gs1000 , I like them way way more than the beyerdynamic dt990 and dt770 . The lcd-2 is better but those phones were made from angels wings.
Wow! are angels wings made from plastic , metal , wood etc ?
mmmm...? where would headphones be if humans hadn't any scientific knowledge ? .
Maybe their would be a few primates banging on Tree logs & using coconut shells to focus the sound. & Graphicism ancestors would be there complaining about the lack of sound-stage in his/her coconut shell .

Nobody ever recommended these cans for classical or jazz, nor are they known to be "immersive". They're just fun and engaging without overdoing anything, which headphone Nirvana (for me).
I remember some review that explained very nicely (drawings included) that the HD25s have good spatial positioning without sounding distant or very layered (aka "good soundstage" for most people).
aka well balanced :-) .
