Wow, I didn't realise something similar is around in the IEM world. I left it for more than a year now. It is very recent too. It will still be much harder to implement it in full-sized headphones, due to many factors. Not to sound pessimistic or anything; but realistic. Can you comment on the efficacy of that product (SP51)?
Don't be so sure. You may sell them for this.
I'm thinking of neutrality for the closed back and fun for the open back, like FA-003 and FA-011. In fact, that's how I came to this. I was struggling so much to decide which to buy, FA-011 or FA-006/3, because of the sound signature, pads, the price, and the cup design. Ideally, I'd buy both. But I'm a student, and there are minor things that would bug me even if I bought both.
I have yet to try the SP51's, but I have other MEE earphones and they're pretty decent. Granted I've jumped from the M9's to Grado SR80i's. I commute to college via bus, so the openness of the grado drives me crazy, but I love the open soundstage coming from it when I'm in a quiet place. I'd definitely buy a pair of headphones that changed from open to closed with little difficulty.
