I would say it depends on what is more important to you. Liquid, lush, thick mids like what the Audeze's give you. Or crystal clear, highly resolving mids much like the TH-900. The TH-900 are great for all genres IMO, not the best, but very good with everything. But since I have the luxury of having the LCD-3 as well as the TH-900, I use the Audeze's for the heavy female vocalists I like. The TH-900 still have a bit of a sense of dialed back mids. They are still "recessed" like the D7K, but less so and more intimate. On the other hand, Audeze's house sound is always to have forward mids, with the vocals being upfront. It really is subjective, and what you approach you like better. Personally, I love the way Audeze does their mids and vocals.
I read through most of this thread and found that people generally agree that these headphones are good for EDM, trance, rock etc. Others agree that the TH900 does well with all genres of music.
Anyone a fan of Emile Sande/Adele type female vocals? I used to have the LCD-2 and they were wonderful with female vocals. I need a closed back headphone. Wondering if the TH900 will suit the music i listen to, or if I should wait for the LCD Closed back.
