Got my Momentums in black yesterday. Pleased to report they fit very nicely and they are very comfortable. I am surprised how light they are. I was walking around outside with them plugged into my iPhone while using the Onkyo HD app, and I almost forgot they were on.
I like the color scheme a lot, black with red stitching, cable and and interior of the cups, reminds me a bit of a red Jaguar F Type interior or something (I don't even know if Jaguar makes an interior like this, but it reminds me of it anyway).
SQ-wise, right out of the box, they were quite neutral and tonally balanced, but a little closed-in sounding on the top. I listened to them for a couple hours, and then put them on the laptop with music playing for a few hours overnight. Using them with an AQ Dragonfly or LH Geek Out.
They are opening up nicely now, and the highs are more extended and open-sounding. The mids really are very nice. I expect by 20 hours or so, they will be "there" in terms of run-in. They seem quite transparent, so they reveal pretty much exactly the quality of the recording.
More impressions later, but I am happy camper so far.
