This info I have been looking for. I have the HFI-580's and love them. But I have been wanting to try the 780's. I was afraid of losing the bass and now I know I won't.

The most balanced sound among the three is the 680. I also own the HFI-700 and it too is balanced in the spectrum, with more bass than the 680 but less than the 780. IMO, all Ultrasones have bass, that is not their weakness. The 780s also have very piercing highs that make your eyes water, out of the box, along with great deeeeeep bass. The highs and lows seemed detached from each other while still being prominent. Burn-in and a re-cable took care of that. |
