But open vs. closed, if that matters for the intended application.

Of course biggrin.gif 

 

In that case, I recommend the PSB M4U 1. Great sound and your ears fit inside.

Ok, what's a good can that has a similar sound to this but (bass emphasis, yet well rounded) fun warm, that you can fit your ears in? Not the M-100 because that's what people keep telling me but it's not out yet. Unless someone has one they would sell me! :P

I can't think of any. The Denon D1100 maybe?

 

The sound from Momentum is one of a kind which is why I went after it.

My ears fit into my UE6000 and it has bass emphasis and musically fun, warm.

Yeah, maybe a little to bass emphasized from what ive read,  but someone said Godspeed you! Black Emperor sounded rather dull on it, what's even the point of having a headphone without Godspeed?

Everything sounds dull on it due to the bass hump, but it's smooth. 95% of closed portable cans seem to fit into this category.

 

But you wanted bass emphasis and warm. Can't have that and excitement and speed.

I don't know what you mean by excitement then. To me bass is generally exciting. Dull=to neutral/analytical.  Godspeed is a slow band so by unexciting means it doesn't make you feel and get tingles.

I think he was listening to this song with the Momentums vs ue6000:

I just got a pair and can confirm the DO NOT work with Android phones; in particular, my Motorola Droid 3. Very, very disappointed given how expensive these cans are.

You mean the clicker/mic doesn't work? or just the center button works but not volume? if there's no sound at all, that's really weird. try using the non-smartphone cable, in that case

Agree with Beagle regarding the M4U2/ M4U1.
