A friend brought back a pair of these Sony MDR-XD1000 headphones for me as a gift from Vietnam. Quite honestly I have never heard of Sony having a pair of MDR-XD1000 heaphones and I really wondered if these were fakes and questionable. The box they came in was quite nicely designed with Japenese information and the phones themselves were quite well made but resembled some AT's.
So I naturally ran a check on Yahoo Japan and came up with nada, I then made a search on Yahoo and Google and only came up with details on these dynamic cans from sites coming out of China, Vietnam and would you beleive Brazil! Here is what I found on the so called Sony's:
The Sony MDR-XD1000 features a feather-light and sinfully comfortable design. These marvelously efficient headphones give you hours of stunning stereo listening. The large 53mm aperture drivers are based around bobbin-wound CCAW voice coils that regenerate the audio signal with crisp resolution and deep, balanced bass. They excel at accurately reproducing classical and audiophile materials. The lightweight honeycomb casing is comfortable for long periods of wear, and the unique 2-part headband has self-adjusting wings which exert little pressure and absolutely no force on the crown of your head, maintaining an enjoyable listening experience.

Neodymium magnets
Open air dynamic element headphone
Copper clad aluminum wire (CCAW) voice coils
Aluminum matte housing with soft leather earpads
