I completely agree on the HD700, but the hd600/650 sales are pretty much constant...it definitely seems like they are clearing stock...although that doesn't mean they're launching Orpheus 2.0 necessarily, it could mean they're going to either A: refresh products or B: set a new price point and...

I already have a fidelio x1, and I ordered the mass drop K7XX....but I had been looking at the HE-400 for a while now...How does it compare to the fidelio x1 and (what is assumed to be) the AKG anniversaries? (Please talk me out of this haha, I am hesitant to own 3 200 dollar headphones lol).

People seem to have insanely strong opinions about the HD700. As in actively not liking listening to them, or loving them. I think this might be something that you have to find out for yourself but from what I understand it's definitely not a "X is better in 90% of reasons, most people prefer X...

Darn! I was agonizing over whether I needed a pair of HD700s, some negative comments about it made me a bit scared (too much treble?) but I think those were criticisms of it at the initial price of 1k! I finally reached that tipping point and tried to check out when OOS :(.    Anyone know if...

Are there any authorized dealers for these headphones outside of amazon.com? Not enjoying the 30 dollars of sales tax and the 1 month delivery timeframe...makes it 320 dollars :O. Much more than the ~250ish it was a month ago. Does philips typically honor warranties for headphones purchased via...

Just something you haven't possibly considered: over the ear headphones will get VERY sweaty if your workouts are even moderate intensity. That's why I work out with IEMs just because after they're inserted, they seem to be inserted sort of past the skin that sweats so they stay dry, even if the...

http://www.resellerratings.com/store/Amazon# Same as amazon for lifetime reviews. I ordered over a year ago when they apparently were still doing things right. Blah. Only other option I had was audio cubes for almost twice the price with a less than stellar rating profile too: Keenzo has a...

Update! I cannot find the box, it was really small and crappy (plastic) so my mom may have tossed it after I went off to college. Keenzo.com is also still performing their "update" of customer records which they said would take 24 hours at least 2 days ago. Would this even be sufficient? I have...

The build quality on the CK10 is indeed phenomenal but headphone cords will eventually come disconnected if you use them a lot I suppose. It should be noted I've used my full-sized headphones quite a bit for over 3 years now without issue because they have a removable cord.I did treat my ck10...

An estimate about remolding came back at 185, with 45 for detachable cords. This was for Alien Ears though so there is another I've contacted which should be cheaper. If audio technica doesn't honor the warranty I might as well attempt surgery. What would balancing the CK10 involve? The DBA-02...

Quote: How easy is it to pop the shell off and attempt to reterminate it? I might give that a go if only to test it. Otherwise I'm glad there are a few alternatives with comparable quality around 150-160 if the drivers are indeed broke. If the drivers are fine I may get it...

Thanks for the replies guys. Fortunately audio technica does list the CK10 as having a two year warranty (part of the reason why I went with them). http://www.audio-technica.com/cms/site/9b1da7946d7de4bf/index.html#hp   I found the page for e-Q5  easily enough, but couldn't find info on...

I haven't contacted audio technica yet but from what I understand they stopped making CK10s. I bought them last year, but I'm not sure if they were an authorized dealer (I don't think anyone is really since they're imported from Japan I believe). Out of nowhere the left channel goes completely...

Ok so the tf10 are not hugely superior compared to the E530. I guess they're out. I'd love to buy the um3x but they are definitely out of budget ( trying to get away from shady retailers on ebay that sell it for 340 and headphone solutions sells them for 380 so both are out of my price range. )...

"For reference I listen to electronic music that does have some bass but it isn't the classic "UNCE UNCE UNCE" music. I also enjoy rock, a bit of heavy metal ( no screamo ), and classical." From my first post. Those are the types of music I listen to. I'm mostly concerned with a somewhat...
