I checked out Amazon and they also have the 'on ear' version of the Momentum and it's actually less expensive. I wonder how it sounds. Thanks.
The Momentum On Ear is widely considered to be a step or two down from the regular Momentum. There are reviews of both on line and there's a reason why the On Ears are cheaper.
Re the regular Momentun, it's pretty good but... I had a pair briefly and thought the midrange and highs were fine but found the bass to be a bit too prominent for my taste and a bit "wooly", i.e., not tightly drawn, and returned them. Tyl Herstens of InnerFidelity.com said the same thing. But others seem to think the bass is fine -- depends on your taste, the kind of music you listen to and other phones you're using for comparison.
That said, for a reasonably priced pair of portable closed phones, they were as good or better than the best competition in their price range.
By all means let us know what you think.
If you're a brave soul you can try hitting headfi.org for some opinions.
