Shure IE-600

Here here. I think they're much more comfortable than HD 5--/6-- headphones for this reason. That said, I still can't justify owning them and 6XX are my daily drivers.

There’s some very advanced vsts out there for music production in terms of introducing tube emulation, tape, triode, whatever. I’d say 99% of modern mixes that are produced in the digital realm use these. If you’re using a colorful tube amp, you’re just introducing even more distortion to the mix before it makes it to your ears.

If you have a DAW program on your computer like garage band or logic, try loading in a song you're familiar with and then put an exciter VST on the track, and dial in like 1-5% tube emulation

As a mix engineer (music, mostly metal), I'm studying the product page and the embedded video on these. It seems like they're designed to hit a target curve optimized for mixing in the Dolby-certified world, i.e. for multichannel film audio mixing.

I'm very keen to find the perfect headphones for mixing music - something that will reveal all details in the mix, even down to 20 Hz, accurate transient reproduction, while having a curve that facilitates mixes that will translate well. In other words, something that doesn't have exaggerated highs and lows, because then my mixes will be too flat. I was hoping these might be something to explore to this end, but it seems they're not really designed with mixing music in mind.
