All I have to say is that their awesome pair of headphones. Great sound stage, vocals are a bit too strong, you can feel the bass other than hearing it, and great for movies. Comfort is 4.5...

I know people bash on Bose because of they're over priced and I agree. I believe these retail for about $150 or so and I paid $85 for these due to employee discount at where I work. With that...

I bought these headphones as an upgrade from my BD DT-770 Pro 80Ohm. The are better in all areas, except that the right can can't handle bass. As soon as there are low bass it just becomes a...

I just picked these up today so this is just an initial assessment. These are a great sounding headphone overall but the fact that they are also closed back and still have great soundstage at...

everything about these headphones is flawless. Everything is balanced, and perfect. Any of the reviews that didn't like them most likely have a fake pair, or, hate life. The only thing I could...

Re: Nordst Cables?
If you are referring to Nordost cales and interconnects, I have a pair of Blue Heaven silver ribbons connecting my Njoe Tjoeb to my RKV upstairs. Nice, clear neutral in my experience. Construction and materials are OK.- lextek

I used the Solar Winds first and then went up to Blue Heavens. I didn't do much comparing because Nordost is pretty much all that stores carry that I've been to save one that had MIT.

I have Blue Heaven & Red Dawn. Was going to get a 2nd new BH when a used RD showed up for the same price & I grabbed it.
I haven't given a critical listen for a while to compare. I recall thinking the BH gave 90% or more what the RD gave. The Red Dawn from source to headamp made one of the phones (HD600) buzz as if from overload with the deepest bass notes!
I have the RD between source & preamp & BH between preamp & poweramp. This is temporary as im looking for a balanced cable to take BH's place.
BUY USED!!!!
