Got the AR5000 today, they are super light and comfortable. Can confirm it's 'warm-neutral' with good clarity and mid emphasis. Bass is very neutral but extends deep; those who look for 'slam' should look elsewhere. Female vocals and string instruments sound particularly good and attention grabbing with these headphones. Overall, a great pair of headphones worth the $299 retail price. One surprise I found was that they need almost as much power as my HEK Stealth even though specs suggest they are much more sensitive.
