Hey,I saw a link from a few pages back to the germania mod,( here http://www.head-fi.org/t/383257/germania-s-audio-technica-esw9-mod-s);i just wanted to know has anyone dont it successfully?I want to try it out but the thread is pretty old and dead and I don't understand how the layers go.If...

Another DSnuts post to get me hype again...I bought my ws55 a while back based on your old thread...might have to buy another pair just really curious about how these sound...Although I've been thinking of getting either the es700 or the esw9...does anyone have both of them or had any experience...

Could you please do me a tiny favor.Can anyone give me all the exact measurements? http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Ear-Pads-FIT-ATH-Audio-Technica-WS55-WS-55-Headphones-/251011951733?pt=Other_MP3_Player_Accessories&hash=item3a717a6c75 I want to know if they measure almost the same as these.I want to...

Quote: This exactly.Just stretch them out over books and they become a lot more comfortable.Speaking of ear pads...I might actually try the HD25 pads out. But really just stretch it and it becomes way better.

Quote: Yeah like I said in my review,the comfort can get to you;but spread them over books over night and it does get better.The sound of these made me accept it and now they feel pleasant on my ears.I have been using cheap headphones for a while before I bought these so...my opinion...

Haha,I guess you're right!Thanks again for giving these a try and making a nice comparison between the two other headphones...I was about to get the AKGs but your review on the AT made me want to try it out.

Yeah I think I like these more than my CAL!s...I'm just having so much more fun with these.The CAL!s were my first pair of headphones by the way.I still miss my CAL!s though and I would love to still have it with me to do comparisons....Eh well if they didn't break then I wouldn't have found...

All right,so after almost a week of listening to my WS55,here are my thoughts on it.   BUILD:8 Very well done by AT.When I took them out of the box they felt sturdy,sturdier than my CAL!s,and the overall build is really solid.I absolutely love the look of these,so simple and sleek.One...

My pair just came in today and here are my initial impressions. On the first song I played I immediately noticed the bass.I was not let down by the thread's impressions and the dual air chamber solid bass printed over the package. I actually found them to be REALLY comfortable.I'm gonna let...

Ugh...still waiting for mine to arrive...I should pay for better shipping next time.

Thanks for the input.But is the cushioning on the pads very soft?Right now I'm using some cheap coby headphones and my ears hurt after some use.Is this issue still present with the WS55s?

Hey I was just wondering exactly how comfortable are the WS55s, I'm trying to find another pair of portables since my CALs died on me.Comfort is really important because I was able to wear the CALs for a LONG time.I know the WS55s are on the ear;do they hurt after a while?And how good is the...

Maybe not that much for planes,but I do travel by bus and subway a lot.I can get a pair for about 80 bucks shipped so they cost just as much as my CALs did.Thanks for the suggestion for IEMs,but I really prefer the comfort of a circumaural.Thanks for your input.

First off should I even bother with active noise cancelling headphones?I've heard that they might not have the best sound.I mainly listen to electronic music,but I've started to listen to hiphop,rap and some music with a lot of background instruments...for example Somebody that I used to know by...
