Very sensible post.
In my experience most well made dynamic headphones sound more alike (as in all sound good) than different when driven from a top-end amp with a high-end source. Sure, there are slight differences in how each phones present music, but they all sound good. I can't believe people are buying two or even three pairs of essentially the same phones so they can critically listen for those nuances. Fundamentally, headphones, no matter how well they're made or how hi-end, have a huge handicap in music making comparing to speakers. Does anyone remember when was the last they listened to any pair of headphones and felt a chill down their spine cuz the music sound so real they are in disbelieve? Enough said.
Yes, happens quite often. Does anyone remember the last time they heard live un-amplified acoustic instruments and felt a chill down their spine from the beauty and emotion of the music and passion conveyed by the musicians?
WA, have you considered the possibility that your brain could be psycho-acoustically adjusting to the sound of the rev.2?
I have found that break-in with headphones is usually do to that as much as to the headphone itself physically changing.

That was the main reason of writing here: it is worth buying this one for most of the time watching to movies.
If you do not recommend it, why might this be and what do you think an alternative would be?
Thx.

bass extension improved
Question: How does the bass extension improve when they measure ruler flat fresh from the factory? Is the sub-bass now above the mid-bass? That could be easily measured. Maybe ask Tyll to remeasure his LCD-2s? He's probably been using them for a while now.
