  Looking at a pair of forsteni these to swap with my umpro 50 can you compare these before I pull, I mainly listning to metal 
Thanks for your efforts

I listened UM50 a long time ago, but I remember it was very narrow and dark sounding. UM series are stage monitors so I don't think they're very suitable for listening music alone. 
 
Forsteni has an open sound, good treble and a very good resolution for the price. Although it wouldn't be proper for me to compare them directly, as a lot of time had passed since I listened the UM50, I can still recommend the Forsteni to you. Especially with the PW No.5 cable.
 
I don't listen metal music so I'm no expert at that regard, but I think it would be nice as it has a nice open sound with good treble extension, a natural bass response and good control (no harshness).

Thanks for the addition of the new earsonics!
my conclusion of the umpro 50 is pretty much the same as yours tho i cant see any benifit for use with muso's either its not like the instrument separation is anything to write home about
