So i received them today from my courier and i plugged them in to my pc audiojack and listen some. I'm sad They don't sound clear to me, they lack texture and bass feels too much too loose (depends what song) it ruins for Classical music. I don't hear much difference to my supercheap headphones we got for free (and they sound a bit more clear to me,-or front opposite to laid back). I heard they should improve while burning in (now about 7 hours) still not impressed (my ears the problem? Or soundcard? So many people praise these headphones for their SQ “Amazing sparkly high's, Very balanced. Lacking bass?? Not really. Umm, i don't know what else to say, give up and sell them? I really hate spending and disappointed, been happened to me before

They should be much better than for-free-'phones, no matter the source or amp. The sound-stage (or air) in the highs should be apparent from the start. In my opinion, they are pretty balanced from bass to treble - are you sure you have all of your cables attached properly?
 
EDIT: They don't have huge, boosted bass. If that is what you are after: keep searching.

Yes it is. But my pc prebuild is 7 years ago. Nothing special

i used to own earpuds which had superclear sound they we're Sennheiser CX 8xx series

I don't know but they should sound better, but i don't hear the magic. Something must be wrong

They need to burn in, 150 hours.

i bought my first pair of 598's 6 year ago and they sounded great, very open and clear but these don't impress me, idk why

 

[Heiku]

sound overall definately sound worse compared to my first pair, i can't be wrong. I can't be unlucky, if you listen to mine you would see what i mean

The only thing I can think of you to try is to make up an adapter to check if maybe they were wired out of phase.
