Oh yeah, and do let us know how they sound as well

edit: I'm assuming the cord slider is just to snug up the cable where it splits for the left and right can.... which means I'm either going to have to bundle up 2m of cable, get the cord shortened (bad idea?), or just get the k26's....
I haven't heard k26/27, but k81 is looking promising at this moment. The sound signature is very aggresive and its forward presentation makes it very entertaining.

The slider sits above the Y cable split, therefore it only adjusts the right and left driver cord tightness, not the length of the cord. It's always better to have them longer and use thick rubber band to strap them together.
