Make no mistake about it, the TH-900s are not equally good as the D7000s. They are better in every way!

I think Audiowood's talking about th 600 since he has the 900 for a while 

or are you talking about the 600 but  the 9 is a typo mistake ?

Production of Th900 will also be in the future without any modification of the headphone.

Thank you smily_headphones1.gif

May I ask, I have seen some posts before mentioning an issue with the cup having a loose connection to the headband; is this known to happen on its own or is it the result of some external factor?

I believe there are only 4-6 reported case so far and may not represent the majority of the stocks.

 

Here is my personal story (again personal) on that screws..The technician that tighten the screws happened to de dreaming about becoming rich and may apply a relatively light force to it, his dreams then pop and the whole mental structure of being rich collapse in split second when his boss walk pass and decided to use more strength to tighten it. So that is why 4-6 people suffer from anxiety and stress related issues when that cups fall off halfway way to musical enlightenment.

 

I am kidding.. of course.

To be on the safe side, you can remove the pad by giving a slight anti-clockwise twist on the pad, it will come off. Remove 4 screws and the cup comes off, then tighten the screws.

The box is sure big - compared to the actual headphones within. :) Maybe it is some sign indicating the soundstage...

Yeah, the box is massive.. and this is just the inner box, excluding the headphone stand (I got the old wire one).
