What do you mean by 'sound quality'?
I know it close vs open but I find Philips Fidelio X2 better than th900 in sound quality .
Too much bass?
Recessed mids?
Harsh treble?
Those are actually the reasons why I love my TH900The tuning of TH900 is just right for me.
And if you give this a listen:

You will find that compared to other flagships, TH900 actually sounds the most sonically "correct" except the slightly recessed mids.
No exaggeration on soundstage or imaging.
I know it close vs open but I find Philips Fidelio X2 better than th900 in sound quality .
bass good but not controlled and well extended like lcd 3
Th900 medium sound stage but philips X2 has bigger soundstage
Separation and imaging very good on X2 also beat th900 .
Highs: smooth and clean in both headphones.
low interfere with mids and that's bad thing in Th900 .
regardless of the price X2 and fostex th900 have similarities but open always beat close headphones .
philps X2 and Th900 are the most pretty headphone in my collection .
And to me Apple earbuds beat an SR-009 + Blue Hawai setup by miles in overall SQ.
I have them both and I spent over 5 months with them so I'm not sorry too leave th900 behind X2 . no strong point for th900 to pick over X2 really !!
Only in your dream .
That'd be a nightmare. But comapring a crappy fidelio to a th-900 is a dellusion.
I only speak facts . in my experience with these headphones, I prefer X2 over Th900 .That's my ears not looking at price or looks .
