The HE 400S went into the market in an abruptive manner. Planar magnetic and $299 don't normally come in the same sentence.
Those that had better headphones, noticed shortcomings. Those who spent $300 for the first time were blown away. Bashing? Nah. These were impressions. Everyone has them. Good or bad.
Appreciation of these headphones must be viewed in context. You must know where you are in the appreciation spectrum. Find reviews where you most likely fit in terms of gears and experience.
Finally, audition. That settles all things.
