How loud do you have to push the z1r to get the bass to hit you hard?
They are my personal cans. My review pair was borrowed.
I began playing with an EQ today. Starting with a ~+4d low shelf below 100 Hz for the Utopias, that made them more interesting. On the other hand, boosting 5kHz by about 4.5dB on the Sonys seems to fix their muffled sound. After I'd done that, I found this graph in the thread that I'd missed, which reveals the problem quite clearly:
I wish.
A bit of a surprise I had was after spending some hours listening with just the Utopias, I thought I'd switch to the HD800. Basically after the Utopias, the HD800s (not S) sound veiled in comparison. It was rather shocking.

Well HD800 is obvious not the most transparent headphone. The most transparent dynamic headphone I have heard is GS2000e, which I did a direct comparison with Utopia and Grado is more transparent. Utopia is really close, but still a slight behind in terms of transparency.
