the mest mk2 is pretty good and an easy recommendation for trying out, but far from the best, especially for classical music where it struggles massively in imaging and timbre to a lesser extent. Most other things they do quite well

Agree about the veil thing, and i think the highs sound weird, having a much lower dynamic range than the mids and bass

I only have the Dusk as a reference for classical music and they sounded pretty good and clear with it, but the MEST makes it much more immersive and detailed as a whole and kinda closes you into a vortex of sound, which I enjoy. But yea, I'd imagine the Diva or something like that would be more appealing for classical music and vocals.

What in your opinion or experience would you say is the best?
