Just 1 to sound like the HD650. Please, that's all I'm asking for!

I don't know if this has been posted but...
Sennheiser's new MX W1 earbuds get wireless with Kleer - Engadget
Sounds interesting but i was hoping for a new full sized flagship headphone, as I'm sure most were.

To be fair, there was a cheap electrostat market because team Stax and their evil propaganda quadrupled the price of used electrostatics.

If you with "affordable" mean up to $250? Yes, then there are no competition at all (except the SR-003). From $250 and up there are several Stax and one Koss.

IF this new IEM all what we will see from Sennheiser at CES 2008 ..... i kill them! 
They made so a big announcement with her "to contact" Head-Fi,
i wait nearly 2 weeks so much for this 6.1. and than this?!
For me, Head-Fi is a platform for High-End Audio over Headphones.
Senn to contact Head-Fi with great "Tamm-Tamm" and then fuc***ing IEM??
The contstruction of the HD650 is "400 years" old.
Senn,... i want to see something NEW! NOW!!
If this are all from Sennheiser for CES, i will write a very angry Email to them
and wash there head for this big announcement action.
(and buy me an O2 MK2 from PriceJapan and then the theme buying HP is all over for me... and this i will write Senn exactly)
I'm so angry. Sorry for my terrible english.

I, for one, am glad that I won't have to buy an HD800 just weeks after buying some 650s!

On Sunday, I'll know for sure what's going on, and will then have a chance to listen to whatever Sennheiser is announcing at CES. Can't wait. Hopping on a plane in a few hours, and still haven't packed.

Good luck tomorrow! Please share the buzz with us RIGHT AWAY! We are impatient people, if you couldn't already tell. I need a new rival for my D5000, and the Senn IEMs don't cut it.

Comic gold. I don't particularly care what Sennheiser announces at CES if they're not pushing the envelope of sound quality.
