Headphoneus Supremus
The Klipsche Customer 3s, although they also suffered from weak bass; however, the vocals and lead guitars were just phenomenal.
I'm a bit disappointed because I just spent $175 on these and I'm underwhelmed. They actually seem to have a similar signature to the TTPOD T2E earbuds, only better in every respect.
If there was just a bit more solid, tight bass, I think I would have no complaints.
Yeah, i paid close to £200 but i was able to return them to HiFiHeadphones without fuss. The best pair I've had and still have are the Dunu DN 1000. They are v shaped but the mids are very clear and detailed and not even close to being veiled. Bass is big and powerful, with great resolution. Mid bass especially is fun. Treble is very crisp and clear, depending on tip can be quite hot. i prefer foams or Spinfits. Detail levels are fantastic, to micro details level.
I guess they'd be good for metal, although it's not something i listen to. they do all genres well, big soundstage, great separation and layering. I love Queen, and some of their more heavier early stuff and metal tracks sound awesome.
