Well... the Lyr might make some difference... but... I doubt it can change the inherent sound of the phones. Perhaps you didn't notice that I did have the EF5 to drive them, which is the amp HiFiMan recommends... not to mention... that they maintain they can be driven well by any headphone amp.
And... all I can say about your other phones... is you apparently haven't heard them with well matched sources and amps.
May I suggest you read the Headphonia review.

Gradofan2:You are so wrong about the sound of the HE-500. The HE-500 may sound dark on your Millet but it doesn't sound dark on the Schiit Lyr or other amps which have enough power to properly drive them. The bass definition and impact of the HE-500 with the proper amp can't be equaled by a dynamic headphone. I like my Grados and A/Ts a lot, but the HE-500 is a step up from all of them-again, when they are driven by the proper amp.
