Received my Senn 598's today, and I think I may have had too high of expectations. The highs are a bit lacking, and they seem a little muffled overall. I do agree that female vocals sound fantastic, but male vocals seem to lack texture and depth. Not sure if this would improve with burn-in, or if I should try to amp? I have been eying an E7, I see how being an audiophile can be quite a slippery slope.
May also be because they replaced AKG K518's, which I now realize are extremely bright and have very sharp highs. My ears may just be used to a much brighter sound.
I'm not ready to send them back yet, but do you guys think a burn-in period or an E7 would help? A different set may work better with an iphone as the primary source.
Any help would be appreciated.
