Update:
 
  I've just got the X1S delivered to me. So far, the sound is well worth the money (RM258) I paid for it. I use it 90% for movies, the other 10% music.

  For me, most headphones in the price range between RM600-1200 all sound quite close to each other, Just because we need to "write to describe" the difference between them, we thought they would sound utterly different.

  The worst headphone I bought was the Edifier W830BT. I only use it for Youtube now.
That one was complete trash.

  No regrets so far with the X1S.

Our brains OR ears, can adapt too. How many times I've bought some headphones or speakers that I initially didn't like, but after
a couple of sittings, they turned really good. Same for my other headphones as well. Burn-in, whatever ...  most probably our brains did all the EQ-ing. Haha ...

  Also one can also use the EQ, or some really good EQ apps to bring everthing closer.
