Are the Westone W40 to much $$$ for simple listening from my iPhone 6 using Apple lossless files ... or are they a great set of earphones for this application. Thanks so much

I'm not really sure what you mean by "simple listening" (do you mean as background music?), but I think they are really great earphones for the price. Impressive separation, detail and layering - you won't really have to concentrate to hear almost everything in the music (if that's what you mean by "simple listening").

I think you are trying to ask if it's worth buying the W40 for listening via iphone VS. a HiRes player? If so, I think they are worth it. They will sound great via iPhone lossless files. I use my UmPro 30's and 50's via phone and they sound great. But keep in mind that I am a casual listener and not very technical when it comes to dissecting the nuances.

+1. The iPhone 6 is quite a solid music player IMO. It should go well with the W40's.

I am using these with my iPod Classic and they sound awesome. + I got an incredible deal for them on amazon.ca, so totally satisfied.
Still, if you can an a little push with an amp...I use Fiio E6 or Q1 and it gives so much more... E6 is ont hi res and about what, 40$?
