First off, I should say that the Avantones 3k peak makes it impossible to balance vocals on them for me. I much prefer Auratones for this very reason as I find them much flatter in the mids.

Now with Auratones I'm not using them to mimic a typical crap speaker, but rather to hear and balance the midrange without being fooled by very low or very hi frequencies (and the fact that they are single driver design) that can make up for deficiencies in the midrange that may cause bad translation problems.
