I've only heard the UM1 and UM2s so I can't really comment on the Etys. The UM1s are quite sturdy. The twisted cable and the over the ear design are excellent in removing microphonics.
I would definitely call the sound signature more "brown" and mellow. In some cases this is a good thing, in others it is not. As was mentioned earlier the highs are rolled off. This does make for some nice long session listening, but I'm worried that it will annoy listeners of classical that favor brass or percussion instruments.
