Thanks for taking the time to write such detailed comments. 
The HDD in my DAW laptop has actually developed the "click of death" probably due to the hot weather here in the last few days. I went to get a drink and when I came back it was spasming. I didn't have my "recreational" multitrack stuff backed up... Everything I strictly need is still OK.
Anyway, new HDD is on the way and I'll be back up and running soon.
I'm not sure about the accuracy of the low end on the Shures but they certainly do extend a lot lower down. I mentioned that I'd mixed the song on them because the impact at 0:53 isn't nearly as fun on my HS50s.
