Sounds great! I was thinking of getting another Audio Technica ESW10JPN for myself ever since my gf got one. Depending on the size, I'll probably grab a K550 myself.

Hey FritzS,
Thanks for the impressions so far! Would you say the K550 looks good enough to wear outside? The K701 looks way too big and weird to wear outside in my opinion. If it is thinner on the sides, it might work out though.
The K550 seems to share similarities with the Ultrasone ED8 in form which is a good thing. I wonder how the K550 would look on smaller heads.

Ultrasone ED8
Good size comparisons but could we have some pictures comparing when worn on a head? Maybe that might be asking too much. A dummy head comparison could work too.
Seeing as how the K550 have 50mm drivers, it might have a really good potential for bass impact under a good EQ. I know the Ultrasone HFI-580 does. Both the basshead and the audiophile in me are getting excited.

This is my goal next days, weeks ...
Please dont be impatient ... this need some time
PS: My sneaking favorite for relaxed hearing ... K501 .... not perfect as x701/702 but relaxing
PPS: Now I will spend some time for the K550 (after 4 hours burning in).
