If fits ok it's better than chifi, but needs enough power to sound at 100%, something like 500mw on balanced connection.

These sound awesome. If I hadn't already bought a second pair a couple of months ago, I would buy them now.

How's the bass? Is it hard-hitting or more "balanced" bass?

Pretty impactful bass unless you have fit/seal issues. or if you're using them with a device that can't power them.
