  Try the MDR-1RNC case ONLY if you need one. Pops up now and then on ebay.

As i said earlier I'm looking for a case too. I really don't understand what you mean by " ONLY if you need one" ? . Could u explain that statement please. Is the 1RNC a suitable good one or is it not ?
 
By the way, got my Dynamat in the post today : )

Sorry, I should have been clearer. I meant to say buy only the case and not the 1RNC headphone package. I've seen just this case on ebay for $20.

Not at all. They are big enough to comfortably fit over the ears yet easily small enough to be a portable package.

Hi
It seems like I lost my MDR 1R, and I'm torn between buying a new one, or go and try another model.
I really love the sound signature of the MDR 1R, and removable cable is a must.
Thinking on AKG 545 or an ATH m50x. Are their SQ comparable to the 1R ?
The cause for not going straight for a new pair of MDR 1R, is that here in Hungary, all things Sony is way overpriced. These to have much lower price (15-20 percent lower)

ive owned all three. sound quality is about the same. sound signature pretty different. mth50x is vshaped with a bass boost. akg k545 is more neutral. i found the ndr1r to be midcentric with a midbass bass. i enjoyed all three of em & dont think u will be unhappy with the sound of any of em for their respective price points. note sonu released a new mdr1a
