Considering that the EX600 and the EX1000 both have the same ergonomic design, I'd imagine that wearing them will be similar... since I had a good seal with the EX1000, I'd imagine I got a good seal with the EX600 too. Anyway, the vocal was too forward compared to the rest of the instruments.That's what the soundstage problem came up to me as. I didn't mention anything about harsh trebles either. I demo'd them, so I am pretty sure it is quite burnt in from everyone else that demo'd them.
I think you should also re-read my impressions. I didn't say the EX600 didn't sound good, I just thought it was such a shame that the vocals are so forward that it gives me the impression that everything else is recessed. However, when the vocals aren't present, I'd agree with you, the EX600 is an alright earphone. I can't imagine that there is a lot of people not listening to music without any sort of vocal injection though... which is why I refrained myself from recommending the EX600.
Edit: I thought I should note that I am happy that you are happy with your purchase. Maybe our ears are different. Maybe our sources are different. However, I do appreciate (almost to the point of NEEDING) to hear the background of the music relatively well. So, this might have affected my impression (and disappointment) with the EX600 not bringing the background forward as well as it did with the vocals.
