why are reviews for different headphone models mixed together?

from www.amazon.com
and if you're listening to an old track, they tend to just sound horrible, an example of this is with led zeppelin's whole lotta love, on the turbines plant's vocals sound too far in the mix, and

Klipsch Custom-3

$250.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
most of the other earbuds out there had mixed reviews, and i have pretty average ears, so i was confident i would be ok; but i wasn't.
from www.amazon.com
i also have worked as a mixing engineer in some pro studios (i am not a professional myself, but i have a pretty good ear and music appreciation feeling that some studio engineers tend to like).
from www.amazon.com
oh, the other price is that cymbals sound extremely "hot", and really stand out too much in the mix.
from www.amazon.com
i've had them about a month now, experimenting about every day with them, trying all the ear gels extensively and even mix matching sizes for each ear.
from www.amazon.com
but, if you are looking for the absolute best sound quality, bar none...maybe you are a professional musician/audiophile/studio mixer/etc...then the custom-3's might be for you.
