My pair was a supposed demo model from one of Hifiman's retailers. They came in mint condition, which is lucky for me. I'm not using a balanced cable yet, but I already feel it's a good upgrade...
The JVC HA M750's were my first "real" pair of headphones. Previously, I had just used iPod headphones and cheap 10 dollar headphones from my local grocery store. As such, I was very impressed by...

My opinions
Sound
The sound produced by the HD558 is rich, a bit light, and isn't bloated with bass which is a good thing. It has a crisp treble and punchy bass, very great...
I would have loved to be there. I have never been to a meet before and I have been here (Toronto) since July 10th but I will be flying back to Hong Kong just two days before this meet. Oh well, maybe in a couple of years when I come back (home) again I'll try to time it accordingly.
Will anyone be bringing an Edition 8 to the meet? If so, it's really too bad that I can't make it to this one. I listen to electronic/trance most of the time and so far the Edition 8 (or some have suggested the Signature Pro) is the HP that would suit me best. I haven't listened to either of them yet but I am really enjoying my Pro 900. (MacedonianHero, as we PMed, I really missed out on the deal when you offered yours for sale. I just started coming back to this site a few days after you sold them. Now I know why I tried to avoid visiting this site. LOL.)
Ah, I've been looking to attend one for a while now - leaning towards Aug 26th but I'll try to come over on the 12th if that turns out to be the consensus date.
I'm looking to bring a bunch of IEMs, the DT1350s and probably a full-sized pair (or two). It'll be a bit of an adventure lugging stuff around on public transit lol.
With a bit of luck, the job will let up a bit and I will be there. Nothing new, but will bring the WA2 - > Beyer T1. Definitely looking forward to hearing MacedonianHero's setup -- his reviews have driven a lot of my spending, and with W4S DAC2 -> LCD-3 in tow, he may compete with charliex for drool worthy collection

I can't be held responsible for $ spent....sorry.
Still trying to access if I can make it. August is a terrible month for me at work.
