When I first plugged them into a good amp, I listened to an album that I thought I knew well. Lo and behold I found a whole hidden bassline that I'd never noticed before, sooo detailed. They're open at the back so they do leak noise (price you pay for the good sound quality).
In terms of price to quality ratio, you get more bang for the buck from a good pair of headphones than from a comparatively good pair of speakers.

I would say my pair of SR60's make me 3-4 times better at counter-strike because of sound quality. Did you take the foam and cut circles in the middle ? I think it makes the quality better.
