Wow, never thought you would recommend a monster. But you are right to say that full and tight are antithetical. Would you say monster is tight or full? I will definitely have to say tight is much more favorable to me now. If not, please do recommend one that is tight with as close to that sound as it can get. Thanks, and may your headphone collection be more plentiful. I'm surprised you haven't reviewed some of the best yet. I'm sure big sponsors such as jhaudio probably should know about your gigantic thread by now. Oh, how awesome it would be to to see a review of the jh16pro from the great joker...
Monster is full, not to be confused with 'loose'. 'Tight' is often associated with more analytical sound but a bass-heavy earphone can still sound controlled (JVC FX700 and Hippo VB are great examples). I do like the Monster Turbine earphones - unlike the Beats series they have quite a lot going for them.
JHAudio was not even interested in selling me a JH5 at a discount, which is why I ended up getting the 1964-T. And of course the community was nice enough to pitch in for a UM Miracle, which is coming up on the review queue.
