Aune Audio's first headphone is the AR5000, a 50mm semi-open dynamic with a tilted diaphragm. At the $300 price point, does it give the venerable Sennheiser HD600 & Audio-Technica R70x some competition?

I am not a professional sound engineer, producer, musician, or vocalist, etc. I have not done any scientific research, measurements, or in-depth testing of any kind; just my own listening, comparing and internet reading/research. I have limited, real-life experience with recording, mixing and mastering gear. I have been involved since my teenage years with various churches as an amateur sound booth technician.

Please take these thoughts, opinions and reasonings as just that, my honest audiophile thoughts, opinions and reasonings.
