TBH purchased tons of janime albums last year, significant portion either harsh or unengaging at best. Now they're getting proper love they deserve. This is not only about FR thing (which accounted for most tho) but also dynamic retrieval in the highly compressed situations.
Also, CMG enables to hear double tracking (quite frequent in recordings I mentioned above) analytically AND entertainingly. Not many headphones can do both simultaneously -- even in such a low dynamic range context. What a trick.
I find the same as I upgraded my system as well. Random Sony portable CD player > random Sony earphones: Jpop all day long; Entry level headphone system: Jpop turns poop; Mid-fi system: Jpop is listenable and actually quite good again.
