ardilla - i'm not sure i get pictures 2 and 3.
they're sort of disturbing.  so, are you saying that the T1 and HD650 disturb you?

Actually, T1 disturbed me beacuse I got fatigued - but I love it and wept when I had to let it go. I guess that image reflects that, along with its intimate yet very 3 dimensional soundstage. 
 
The HD650 picture is maybe beacuse I find them very "alive". The HD650 is a favorite :)) I think Finbenton got it quite nice - but I would have added some colour :)

No thats an exaggerated image of the phone. I find LCD's to be quite a similar to HD650, these are still a bit warm but not overly like HD650. Senns are really laid back but I feel I hear a lot more stuff on records with LCD which makes them much more accurate than senns, in a really good way :) These are miles away better than HD650, in every single way.

That picture is completely wrong unless she's cross contaminating that vial.

Is the soundstage that magnificent?

nikp, the soundstage is deceptively great, actually. What I was trying to get at is the unbelievable dynamic range and detail they push out. They have a very "black" background to the music.
 
The HD598 has an excellent soundstage. You might want to try them.
