4R i feel the vocal portion is very very clear but i cant really feel the power on the bass. As for the regular se535, i prefer the voice i heard on the se535ltd.
Have you tried the UM3x? =) It might be the balance you are looking for.

How does Um1 sounds like with comply tips?
Important thing is to get a good fit - the comply does help but most people stick to the regular tips so it can last longer. =)

Only promo item is the Parrot Zik at $529 =) retail price for it is $580

Sorry made a mistake earlier on, we have demo for the regular MDR-1R but not the bluetooth one. Stocks for Sony will be available either July/August. =)

Dynamic driver need time give it around 50 hours should be able to feel the change, optimal hours will be 150 hours onwards.
