No bass head here either but I like to feel it when it kicks, same as you I suppose. The fact that you called them rough and less sophisticated got me wondering though. BenF calls them close to estats regarding this aspect so there's something missing in these reports. It seems that you know what you're doing but no harm asking anyways: are you playing flacs or better? Also, I'm 50-50 on burning in, can make a difference or not (technology says no, some people ears says yes).
Regarding speed, attack, and decay, they are not as fast as my 668B's, but at the same time, they aren't as sibilant. To give you my personal opinion on them being 2x the price, they are not... But then again sound is very subjective as most of us know so the only way to really know is to listen to them yourself. But I can see them being better than most headphones ranging from 60-80, but with deals everyday, you can get a DT770 or a ultrasone hfi 780 for maybe 20-30 more dollars when a promotion pops up. So that makes it a little more complicated, but in terms of straight MSRP, I'd say they sound like 110-120 dollar headphones.
