Alright, thanks!  I might have to give these a try to replace my HD595s seeing as how they're falling apart and I doubt Sennheiser will be much help in getting them fixed, at least not for cheap...and seeing as how they'll probably just end up falling apart again. :P

Great review Katun, enjoyed reading it. I need more info on the bass though, as it's the main aspect which is preventing me from buying these headphones and giving them a try. Do they have quantity and impact comparable to, say, the k550/q701 or the a900x which I think you also reviewed.

Hey, thanks. I apologize for not going into too much detail relating to specific aspects of the sound. I felt this review would be better off that way.

 

The K550 has got more bass presence (when properly sealed) and from memory, the Q701 has a bit less. I'd never label the MA900 has bass anemic. It's sorta like the HD598 and HD600's bass, but has more of a tactile feel. I find it easily one of the better presentations of bass I've heard in headphones. Would never recommend it for bassheads, but other than that, I don't think too many people would find a problem with it's bass amount.
