Today - after a few days of living with my Etymotic ER-4S canalphones driven by my Headroom Total Airhead 4.5V headphone amp, I decided to try my Sony MDR-EX70LP 'phones through my TAH... what a pile of $#@%!! Those Sony EX70LP's will NEVER grace my ears again! NEVER!!! Reeeeeeally boomy midbass with little if any deep bass extension, harsh sibilant tinny scratching etchy glassy spitty (in a crappy way) treble - and (for that craptacular Grand Canyon effect) WHERE ARE THE MIDS?
Screw Sony; buy Etys!
Oh, did I say that the EX70LP's sound much worse than my full-size Sennheiser HD 280 Pro's, too? (Here's a hint: I paid half as much for the EX70LP's as I did for the HD 280 Pro's - but the "half-priced" EX70LP 'phone sounds about six times worse than the HD 280 Pro 'phone.)
