Holy poop, got the ON2s. I'm pretty new to high end headphones, so I might be missing something. Can y'all help? These sound amazing in the mids.... But I have to admit I'm missing the warmth of strong bass. Also the highs are less than super clear. Is that common with higher end phones? Is an amp required for full bodied sound? Appreciate any advice.

Rsw21The ON2 is a nice pair but yes they lack some bass where it counts. Sound is a bit warmer than most other headphones. I recently auditioned a pair and was surprised to hear it was lacking in the bass as I have heard they should be the opposite. And I should mention that I was listening through my Dragonfly Black amp as well so they are powered vs straight through the headphone jack in my phone. So my thoughts are they are really good but not great. But hey congrats on the upgrade for the price. And who knows maybe some break in period will open up the sound.

GregfrasBig help, thank you. This upgrade is going to cost me an expensive new hobby. For the record: these are sounding better and better. Got the same amp you mentioned plus I let them break in a bit.

Rsw21These definitely have a bass-midbass enhancement. It is not near as heavy as beats or any other "basshead" set if that is what you are comparing it to. The enhancement also doesn't reach as low as the bass extension on my m50x. Clarity I find very good, but the whole 'phone does trend a little warm, which I find fun to listen to. Run them with decent volume for a day or two straight and then try again.
