Although I used to be a basshead (yes, I admit to using the Beats Pro
), the treble in the HE 400 actually does not bother me. To my ears, the treble makes the overall sound clearer and more detailed (compared to previous experiences of everything being muffled and colored). The 400 makes me appreciate the bass in a different way now and yet opens up the soundstage. I guess its all ear-specific (as has been said on this thread ad nauseum). Having said that, the 500 takes care of this issue to a large extent.
Maybe try listening to the HE400 at a lower level to help with the treble? I started to listen to the HE400 at a lower level today and I find it to be fine now. I thought the bass of the MD was good, but could do a little bit more impact. I've thought about the Annie also, but in the end opted for the HE400.
