I think the biggest flaw of them is that the padding makes the drivers stay too close to your ears. They made my ears hurt from having constant physical pressure onto them. After half a year or so it got better though, maybe my ears just adjusted and went got less monkey-ears or I just...

Bought these a few weeks back to replace my srh840's.. loving them so far, far more comfortable than my shures and a lot better soundstage, less boring sound too.   What DAC are recommended for these? Is it possible to make them sound decent with a dac around $100?

The build quality is excellent too, they are pretty heavy and feel very robust. My DT770 feel flimsy compared to the Shures.

I got mine today too, so I can answer some of the comfort questions. The clamping is somewhat hard, but it's not like it hurts you or anything, it's harder then my DT770 Pro for sure, but my DT's have been worn for more then one day so maybe the Shures will loosen up. The fit on the pads...
