Got a chance to listen to the well regarded HFI-780 phones for EDM paired with the S9, and noticed a number of similarities with the M50--clean mids with punchy bass, treble sparkle, and fast attack and decay. The M50 sounds more balanced than the HFI-780, with the latter having a tad more bass / recessed mids. I was hoping to like the Ultrasones, but the earpads are hard as a rock and the headband padding acts more as a pressure point than a dampener. Interested to hear from those who have A/Bed these two closed cans in portable vs. amped setups for music (hip hop, trance), gaming, and movies.
