I just got my set from a member, and I have to say that ANYTHING I have thrown at them has been stellar, though my only complaint is that they exhibit a weeble hiss when not playing anything in everything I have plugged them into. This is slightly annoying with quiet tracks (I listen to a lot of classical music, especially Yo Yo Ma cello pieces), but, it is better than most other headphones I've used. I think I expected them to be quiet with an amp, but, not with the iBasso D12.
Right now I am listening to Juno reactor with the headphones plugged in to my HTC Desire Z, and they are fine. Honestly, I can't say that the headphones themselves sound LIKE anything. I have been playing around with lots of different music and they perform very, very well. I find them transparent, so you are listening to the source music (that can be a good or bad thing since if you have crap recordings or files, you WILL hear it) not so much the headphones.
Music I love to listen to:
Yngwie Malmsteen
The Beatles
House of Heros
Bach, especially his fugues played on pipe organ
Mozart
Ray Charles
Regina Spektor
Juno Reactor
Bitmod/dubmod (Square wave sounds are super hard to reproduce cleanly, IMO)
Industrial (lately Eisenfunk)
Beck
Sooooooo . . . I love these headphones because they let me listen to whatever I want without annoying me, and I can EQ things to taste without having to compensate for deficiencies in the headphones themselves.
