I liked the feel and comfort of the Uptown better, but sound-wise I prefer the InCase Sonic you already have. The bass is a little imprecise, but the Uptown sounded a bit anemic in comparison for my taste. The JVC HA-S500 sounds better than either, but also isn't as comfortable as either. :-\
I know recommendations/reviews are on other threads, but since this is the thread that has me tempted by these particular phones, I figured maybe someone here could compare/recommend. I'm talking about the recent posts on the Philips Citiscape Uptown and the Phiaton MS 400. Both have fairly good reviews, both are significantly marked down (Uptown $60 as noted above, MS400 $99 on earlier post, still seems to be available at NewEgg). I already have the InCase Sonic, a sale in another post. Are either/both of these worth getting? (I also have Senn 600's on the way, also by way of this expensive thread). Just curious what folks thought, the posts are very tempting, though I know I really don't need them.
