Just got my HE-400s in the mail, and i'm also noticing that its making female vocals harsh and breathy, especially poorly mastered / low quality tracks. Just out of curiousity, what jazz tracks did you buy from HDtracks?
EDIT: please note that I have not burned my headphones in at all yet, and this is right out of the box.

With the female vocals in these tracks, there is texture but nothing harsh IMO.
I do think that there's something a little funky with the upper mids though, which could cause this incompatibility with female vocals.
