Hi folks, been visiting the site for a while now and been bitting by the bug. Just wondering if these are really as good as they are made out to be. Read all the threads and pulled the trigger on a pair since a few were available on Ebay from Fischer (though seem to be all sold now). I have SR80's, K141 mk2's, K240 Studio and DR150's and a couple of Superlux models. I like the AKG's, especially the 141's though I find the Grado and Goldring to be too forward. Would like something a step up from these and initially thought the FA-011 was the answer but now not sure. Would love the HD650 or 600 but it is way above my budget and besides if I can get close to the sound for a third of the price I'd be happy. I realise if I hadn't bought all the others I could have had a pair but I wanted to get experience with different headphones.

Bought these on whim, for your basic train ride to work I don't mind. But its far from being the best I have own.

First, I should note that I auditioned these both straight out of the box, without any break-in time and then later after 53 hours of break-in. Recent scientific studies have shown definite...

A very all-round headphone for me. Just the right one to take on the go or on holiday. Also as a DJ, nice noice isolation. Very durable so you don't have to wonder if it will break if you throw...

This quick review is done after a few hours of listening. I bought them from B&H for the decent sum of 150$. If you've done your research you'll find out that Ultrasone HPs are known for their...

I auditioned the SRH-1840 straight out of the box, and was unsatisfied with the sound, so I decided to give them a period of break-in. Recent scientific studies have shown definite differences...

Considering the FA-003 is rated at just below or at HD-600 quality, I doubt the FA-011 approaches it. I'd recommend the FA-003 or FA-002W for you.
Thanks for the reply. Yeah I'm thinking I'll probably try and cancel the order and sell some of my current headphones or save up. Ultimately I'll probably always want something in the range of the Sennheisers anyway.
