Iam sorry but i still think it's sound very clean and powerful(but neutral)for
it's price and it can beat MDR-EX51 easely. Also soundstage on these(HE592) are bigger as my SF5pro.

I have to respectfully disagree. I borrowed those from my cousin for a weekend and he borrowed my un-modded FX33. I found the HE592 brutally sloppy and devoid of detail resolution. They lack deep-bass, and the mid-bass bloat that is there is very muddy and congested. Highs are equally congested, and tend to roll off. You should all note than I am not a detail-fanatic... Give me a warm, groovy headphone any day over flat & accurate. So, for the HE592 to disappoint me... really says something.

My cousin (a non-audiophile) came away with the same impression, and returned them the next day for an FX33.

The tips took some getting used to, and I eventually could get a decent seal with them, but after 30-40 minutes they were not very comfortable.

But like anything else, these are just my oppinions... and I completely respect those who hear things differently.
