Is the quality just as good? Any worse or better? Im highly impressed with the HD 439's quality. My friends say they are the best they have ever heard (they obviously havent heard much). Obviously there is going to be a whole lot more bass capability, but how is the lows, mids, and highs compared to the 439?
The bass will be more impressive, impactful, deeper. The mids will be more distant and recessed. The treble is darker, so it will be a more veiled, distant, mellow sound in general.
If you want mids/treble to be retained, I would look towards things like the Beyer DT770 LE 32ohm, Logitech UE6000, AKG K167/267, Ultrasone PRO 750, and then simply equalize for whatever level of bass you want, also potentially incorporating a digizoid Zo or a simply Fiio portable amplifier with some extra juice and bass EQ options.
