Reply to comment by blorg in Best closed back headphones in your opinion? by iMagZz

Some people prefer that more pillowy bass including me. The clean analytical bass from the likes of LCD-X is great but not as fun as the pillowy non analytical ones for some people.

It's the sort of headphone, that if it was priced $100-300, I could see it- although there are even better tuned headphones at that price. At $2,000...

I think it is kind of a preference, I heard because of this bass quality of the MDR-Z1R replicates orchestra hall pretty well. It just sounds more natural according to everyone that enjoys their Z1R. Sometimes being too "clean" makes it less natural. I have the ADX5000 and it kills all echoes and sound clean af. It doesn't sound natural but I kinda like it. I am aiming to get the Z1R next.
