Well I’d agree with that. In general a warmer sound is less fatiguing and the Koss tuning is warmer. I never managed to wear the SR850 for very long because of discomfort with the pads, but I would not be surprised if treble fatigue wasn’t far behind. There’s always EQ. I think the PortaPro’s still sound cheap even with EQ. Whereas the SR850’s just look and feel cheap, they sound fantastic for the price.

Their biggest issue is in the upper mids around 5khz but that can be fixed with EQ. Tbh, the superlux/Samson stuff, while having some issues with their tuning, can be fixed with EQ and be a reliable headphone for the price
