So 4x more? Tengen, how you make such a mathematical error? My M50's will be here tomorrow or Thursday. I hope they sounds as good as the reviews make them out to be...

How is any of this relevant to a new member waiting on his M50 shipment?

Doesn't this always happen?

Ssavage, enjoy your purchase! From what I understand, the M50s are an excellent start into the world of headphone enthusiasts!

Out of all the headphones I have owned, I would say the M50s are the best when it comes to price/performance. Be happy with them, as they are amazing. I still regret giving mine up.

Same here. I mean they have been outdone by my current headphones, but I still miss them to this day. They were just amazing and a "point of reference" for me. I compared all the Grados I bought and auditioned to them and I still think about them when I listen to my newer high-end cans.

They were really bang for your buck and the best can at $100-$150 IMO.

Hey 2rooi123, what is the problem w/ you? Did the OP ask anything about ES10 vs M50? Ok so you have an ES10. Back down and enjoy it and let the OP enjoy his M50. Is it hard for you to do that?

@ OP: M50 has the best Performance/Price among my three entry level cans. It's a bass monster so expect your skull will be vibrated

And you should not read and hear too much from others especially when you already made the purchase. Don't let psychological effect affects your listening.

I'm guessing the L3000 blows the ES10 out of the water. I suppose the ES10 is good for its price, but you should really think about upgrading. I mean, you're paying for quality, you know?
