The ESW10 will be available across Europe from early November if what I've just learned is correct. Pricing will be around 600€/450 Pounds - But don't nail me down on that because I heard it from someone who knows someone who knows...and so on

600 Euro seems reasonable as the german Audio Technica distributor is a joke anyway (the hifi section). The W1000 also costs 500-600 Euros here, they translate the MSRP Yen price 1:1. An import W1000 is around 300 Euro.

So that makes sense for the ESW10: MSRP ~60000 Yen, Streetprice around 40000-45000 Yen, voila 300-350 Euro imported. As long the euro doesnt continue it's landslide until november

I think that might not be too bad of a price (the JP one at least),
who knows what they might be going for in a few years.

those Denon 7000s look so much better than any company-issued picture would imply

Who the heck in their right mind would pay 450GBP for the ESW10?! Seems awfully expensive, but then again, AT are marketing it as a collectable.

surely audiocubes will sell the ESW10 for a LOT less? I mean the ESW9 has always been around the £150 from audiocubes...so even if the ESW10 costs more, I wouldn't have thought they could justify pricing it at more than £250. Do you think they UK pricing is simply because of the very limited number sold in Europe compared to Japan?

D5000s cost £500 in England, yet are £300 from audiocubes.

I have two questions that I would love for you all to try and answer for me. One; how do these headphones compare to the JVC DX-1000's? They are both the flagships of the brands and a direct comparison is in order. Two; what genuinely new technology is implemented in the Denon D7000? Sometimes I wonder if the novelty-of-the-new with these headphones is what drives their sales. I wonder if Denon could have made these same headphones 10 years ago. Maybe there is something totally new about them that really make them a cutting edge reference. I would like to hear your opinions.

You'd be lucky to get a K1000 for £450
