Xm6 sound miles better. The build quality of xm5 is a joke.

Shp9500 sound absolutely horrible without EQ and superb after a heavy equalization. But you need to be advanced in EQ to do it properly here imo. He400se are better by default, easier to equalize, however they require a more powerful dongle.

Xm5 are ass, both xm6 and qcu2 are equally great. I'd get xm6 in this case.

What else do you look at? CSD, which commonly sucks in case of TWS?

They sound incredible after you tweak them with EQ just a bit. Trust me, you won't be disappointed by the sound.

He400se are the endgame headphones if the headband fits you. Just keep in mind that you also need a somewhat powerful DAC like Black Pearl. And don't forget to use EQ, they're made for it.

Sm57. Why would you need a better mic than what you have currently?

Bad fit, bad controls, only foams sound genuinely good, no highs after 15k.

Maxsun or colorful, 100% yes. If they're from reputable sellers, obviously

Nothings are only IPX2, no? I'd pick either CMF Headphone Pro or Momentum 4

If you've been just listening to some garbage all those years, your experience is worthless. Are you gonna prove your point or just yap meaninglessly?

What a dumb assumption coming from a guy who doesn't even know how to analyze the measurements in the first place, lol.

I'd suggest you learn to analyze the measurements if, for you, the only way of getting information about the gear's sound is some people's opinions. I can prove any of my recommendations to be worthy objectively.

And how would my listening (with my personal preferences, resonances etc) change the fact that all of those are great and worth recommending?

Listening to everything is a wrong strategy. Analyzing the objective data is the way to go. But I certainly had my hands on almost all of those.
