Okay, I'll explain what I'm hearing in a more subjective way. With the S500s I feel like the vocals are very forward, they are louder than the rest of the spectrum (which isn't a bad thing in my opinion, it makes them more lively). The bass and the drums stick out nicely; the cymbals aren't bad either. Everything else seems to be behind a veil. When I listen to metal music guitars are almost non-existent. If you listen to metal through the S400s, guitars have more of a presence.
There's a little more going on, but I'm about to get some food and I don't want to do a direct A/B at the moment. I could be wrong in what I think the mids are, I've always been into sound, but I wouldn't consider myself an audiophile until around 6 or 7 months ago.
I don't find them lacking in the mids at all. I wonder if we have different ideas as to what constitutes lows, mids and highs?
