Yes, defiantly quite different in presentation. A few posts earlier I mentioned they are really not comparable.
I think the best way to explain it is....JH5s give you a very closed in feel and you can tell they are IEM monitor. Some people prefer this.
With the 225's it's presentation is more like listening to speakers. (Minus the soundstage!) I prefer this way more.

It is kind of a different experience, imo, but I can say I actually prefer the type of soundstage offered by IEMs to that offered by full size headphones. I don't mean to be patronizing, but it seems to me like you're trying to compare the soundstages of the two types of phones, when, in my opinion, they are quite different. |
