Found the ATH-WP900 fatiguing, dry and cold with a lack of body: very detailed but sibilant at higher volume, so they returned it.

Has used the ATH-WP900 for about three years as their main closed-back and loves its airiness and clarity, though the build feels too plasticky.
Agrees the ATH-WP900 build has too much plastic but is thankful for how light it is.
Finds the ATH-WP900 pure fun with more punch than their W1000X, if a little harsher in the highs.
Imported the ATH-WP900SE special edition; it is fun with huge bass, but has a 3 kHz hole and 4 kHz peak that make it hard to EQ.
Still likes the ATH-WP900's sound, though it has a bit of a hole in the mids.
Bought a used ATH-WP900 for $300 in Japan; it is quite V-shaped, and the fun signature is growing on them.
Finds the ATH-WP900 beyond their expectations.
Finds the ATH-WP900 fun, V-shaped and smooth as butter, smoothing over microdetails that spoil badly mastered songs.
Just picked up the ATH-WP900 coming from V-Moda M-100 Masters and is amazed by the sound quality.
Calls the ATH-WP900 their favourite closed-back headphone.
