A fantastic seller! Very responsive, and quick to ship. Item was in perfect cosmetic and working order. Would absolutely do business with again in the future. A+

Received these headphones in a trade. Wow. Where have these things been all my life? Even unamped from my MBP, they sound stellar! The velour pads + ZMF Pilot Pads take the comfort to another level. These are seriously putting my HD600s to the test, when comparing the two.   Does anyone know...

Then you will be a very happy man indeed!

Sorry for the delayed response, just finished up with finals!   After some back and forth, we're going to do a single-driver swap. The seller had another pair of 580's on hand with the 'black and white' drivers (he remains adamant that this is a regular occurrence; not sure if he is stupid or...

Ah! I remember reading that article a while back. I certainly will refer to that if the seller gets at all hostile. My thanks for all your help and kind words, Bob!

Thanks for the responses, everyone. I will be contacting the seller momentarily. I guess that's what I get for straying from the Head-Fi marketplace.     Secondary question: did the baffle material itself change over time, similar to the colors? These baffles certainly feel the same to me when...

It's strange because I've been lurking this thread on and off for quite some time, and I don't recall seeing this sort of driver housing difference in any of the pictures that have been posted here. But according to the seller on ebay:   ...[T]hey're from the same matched pair. I have come...

On closer inspection when I was removing my earpads last night to give them a gentle wash, I noticed a distinct color difference between the two driver screens. Does anyone else's 580s exhibit this difference? The ebay seller I went through claims that this is a very common occurrence that has...

Nice setup. Great minds think alike with the Schiit, it seems!   Hmm, you're right about the pads. Haven't considered the sanitary issues. I believe I will call Sennheiser this week and order a fresh pair.

Hello! Long time lurker, first time poster ITT. Finally got my hands on a pair of HD580s. To my added delight, the driver screens strongly resemble the "version 2" from the previous page. Paired with my Vali, these are an absolute delight, and strongly reminds me of the HD600 I auditioned in...

Speaking of cables: will the new models be sporting the same length as the previous ones?

Very, very excited to hear about these changes to the ER4!!! Definitely going to be ordering the 4XR later this year.

US buyer. Philips has a 12 month warranty on all of their headphones. The individual I purchased it from originally got it from Amazon in used condition, which renders it out of warranty, according to Philips.

Does anyone have any experience/success in ordering just the drivers from either Philips/Gibson? I have a used pair I recently purchased from the marketplace that has developed both a sound imbalance + a buzzing sound in the right driver, and as it is ineligible for a warranty, I'm fearing I may...

Depending on stock, Philips said I'd either receive a new pair of cans, or else I'd just get a refund. If it's the former, I'll see if I'm one of the lucky ones in terms of avoiding any of the sound or QC issues. If it's a refund, I'll hit up the marketplace for another pair of Woox's...

Recently purchased a pair of Woox-made X2's on the marketplace sub-forum. Love these headphones, but they've developed a slight buzzing in the lower frequencies of the right driver, which is also developing into a channel imbalance issue. Contacted Philips, who instructed me to email Gibson...

Never used such a "micro"-sized amplifier before. Looks pretty awesome!

If I were to buy the 27-ohm variant, could I still use the PT to S adapter for when I want to use the ER4 with an amp?

Might get a pair of these, provided they fit on the NVX XPT100.

Thanks. :)   Could you elaborate on what you meant by "funnier" sounding, please? To what extent did the Westone tips differ from the stock tri-flanges, sonically speaking, in your experience?

Recently bought an ER-4PT (with S adapter) from a user on here. Was finally able to get my hands (and ears) on them today. I am absolutely amazed by the level of detail these bring to the table. I've never had an IEM like this before. Wow. Also, I find the fit snug, but not at all a discomfort...

Excellent review that guaranteed I will be picking up a pair (or two) of these! Tried the Piston 2's back in the day, but returned them because I did not care for the fit nor the bloated bass. Can you (or someone else) speak to the differences between the Piston 3 and its youth model variant? I...

Seconding this, as the drawheart user on eBay seems to have quite a few in stock again.

650 drivers are currently going for $50.23 each (ordered by phone).
