I had an M40X but returned it after a few weeks due to being uncomfortable but they sounded great.  Adorama has them for $65 shipped from time to time.  It's a steal at that price.

Maybe there's a subtle change and some people can hear it and some can't which is why the reviews are so confusing?  Is there something you're not happy about with your K553?  I just bought one so I was curious.  Also curious to see if there's a difference when you get the MKII.

I was looking for the differences between the K5XX series and came across this review which says the drivers are different.  He even went as far as swapping drivers. http://www.head-fi.org/products/akg-k553-pro-closed-back-studio-headphones/reviews/14103

I'd choose whichever I would use more. In my case, I do more listening at home. My portable consists of 1G 1GB shuffle + Crossroads Mylar X3 = very portable.

Just had some fat tire.

I might not be able to make it, my car just developed an overheating problem and the shop can't figure it out yet. It sucks, but there will be other meets .

I vote for silicone. I applied BSE on my ZVM and it's in a silicone case. Only thing I hate about it is it becomes a dust magnet but it doesn't slide around in my car because the silicone is kinda sticky.

That happened to me also when I was removing the foam... you shouldn't worry about it.

Try asking this question @ audiokarma. I got info on relamping my marantz there. Bought the LEDs on ebay.

Just bought a 96 accord last night.

Finally got my X3s last weekend. They're pretty detailed but I was hoping they were a tad bit brighter. I guess I'll burn them in more.

I didn't like the 80s either but I do like the 60s

Gimmie the sony now!!! thanks

I was bored and tried to make a marantz wallpaper lol

That looks great soMn. I've been looking for some mesh that would look similar to the stock grado ones. I guess there's no excuse for me not to do the mod now . Edit: soMn, is there a direct link to the mesh you bought? I'm having a hard time finding it. Thanks.

Put me on the list! Thanks
