I have both of these and like both very much, however I am not sure which I like better. They both have great detail, however the HJE355 has a bit more warmth. The HJE355 is more efficient at 105 db/mw vs 101 db/mw for the HA-FX40. Both are 16 ohms. The HJE355 seems to have a bit better build quality, with a strain relief on the ear bud which the HA-Fx40 lacks. The HA-FX40 does seem to have decent build quality, just not as good as the HJE355. The RP-HJE355 has a right angle plug which I prefer vs a straight plug for the HA-FX40. It looks like the RP-HJE355 has a metal enclosure, although I am not sure about this. The enclosue of the HA-FX40 feels very plasticy. I paid $20 each for both of these. Anyone else here who has both of these care to comment on how these compare?
