Does anybody know where to buy different colour cups + headband for the HD-25?

Quote: Illmatic IS the best Hip-Hop album as far as I'm concerned. It's the most perfect Hip-Hop album there is. I know people who hate rap who love this album, I feel sorry for those who let snobbishness influence their musical taste because you're really missing out if you've not...

Quote: I think albums like Illmatic, ATLiens, Fantastic Vol. 2 are well mastered and well recorded. I have Things Fall Apart to listen to too, so will give that a listen.

Hi everyone. Thread update.   Basically I read the forum a lot and have bought the HD-25.   Here is a pic of them next to my SP's:     They are superior in every way. I think they look great.   I am a noob and can't really describe the sound but it's smoother and higher...

Anyone? :(

Hi there,   I recently purchased Sennheiser's HD 25 SP II headphones and they are great, however I don't like the design of them too much and really thinking about upgrading to the HD 251 MK II Basic Edition as I love the design and I've read they are much better, is the sound quality much...
