No about the same. They feel maybe a bit heavier but not a lot in it.

How does your SR225 compare with the MS1's? Are they clearer and more detailed? I must admit, the jump to MS2 from MS1 was not as I imagined. Sure, it was a better sound which I liked, but they were only subtle changes for a lot more money. I'd have kept them though regardless, if it wasn't for the comfort issue |

With the sound I'm experiencing now I don't see how these could possibly be called "rock phones"... However, these are just first impressions. I will post more later. |

If they are as light as the MS1's, stay on my head when I bend or move and have a touch more detail in the top end and a little more bass in the bottom then I'll be happy. |
