Crap, should i sell my 940... 

Actually no i make use of them being closed quite often.  But those cans shure look nice.  I wonder the price tag on those, guessing $600?

Mike from Headfonia made mention of these via Twitter, was wondering when a post on here would show up about them haha.

Yea, If the price is right I'll be the first on the preorder list! if not I'll just wait until the reviews come out, but this looks very, very interesting.

Looks like i might have found my open back headphone of choice. I hope it is easy to drive and is fairly priced.

wow they sure look better than Shure's closed headphones.  Prettttttty gorge if you ask me, it's like Sennheiser and Beyer had a baby.  The driver looks interesting from the back.  Could it be non-dynamic?  Doesn't seem likely...

That's what I thought. biggrin.gif

 

Why do I have this nasty feeling that it will be retailed at $399?

Looks like they listened to the headband complaints, it looks to be metal and nice sleek design. Nice!

That round silver thingy just looks like a big magnet to me. Maybe it'll have some big 50mm drivers or something.

What we need is for 100 people to indicate that they'd buy a pair if they were priced around $200 evil_smiley.gif

Looks like a Beyer and Sennheiser mix. Very good-looking :0

I was just going to post this!!!

I love their looks and... come on... it's Shure!!!

I'm DEFINITELY going to pick these up!!!

 

No news on their site though, so no model number or anything that I could find!

 

In the meantime, I guess I'll keep enjoying my 940s and my new Denon D5000... w00t!!!
