The SR-Omega isn't brighter than the HE90. Their tonality and tonal balance are very close, close enough that I consider them roughly equivalent relative to other headphones.
Sibilance is due to associated gear, not the SR-Omega itself.

The plastic headband probably loses its elasticity over time and clamping force will be reduced. Replacing the plastic headband part should make it clamp harder.

General consensus was that the Omega 1 was a bit too loose (it seemed like it would keep on falling off the head), so no headbanging! |
