Wow, the PS1000s ahead of the HP1000s?
The PS1000 had way better bass then the HP1000's

I would say it the other way around. The PS1000 has a rather large mid-bass hump and doesn't go anywhere as low as the HP1000s. Technically the HP1000s measure (and sound to my ears) better across the board. The PS1000s do throw a more expansive sound stage though. But we all have our tastes.
I disagree about the PS1000 not going as low as the HP1000, for me, it's the other way around.
That being said, even though i do prefer the PS1000 to the HP1000, it's not a night and day difference, but just enough for me to give the PS1000 the edge.
Great someone that have both the srh940 & hd800. Do you enjoy the hd800 significantly more than srh940 ? Is there some aspects of the srh940 that you miss while listening to the hd800 ?
I find the srh-940's to be a scaled down version of the 800's they have similar tone but the 800's extend lower and the bass has a tad more weight, they also have a wider soundstage though higher is about the same. With the 940's I fund they have great detail retrieval and they sound very open for closed headphones, I mainly use them as my portable phones, when at home I still go to the 800's though, same detail retrieval and dynamics but the bass extention, weight and the soundstage are just that step above. Plus the 800's are the comfiest headphones I own
The 800 has a sort of artificial sound to me that the Shures don't have either.
I'd be curious of how people could describe what they find artificial on the hd800.
I think the big stereo separation, which is more a feature than a flaw, might disturb some.
