These are brand new and unopened. Purchased as a gift but never had a chance to give it to the recipient and now it's outside of the return period. Price includes shipping conus.

This is the older made in Ireland hd600 with a marble finish. I'm the second owner, purchased in like new condition. I haven't put more than a couple hours on them though since I prefer my hd580 and hd650. Included are the following: Original box/accessories Sennheiser CH650s balanced cable...

SOLD Up for sale is my beloved Hifiman Susvara (newest 3.5mm revision). These are without a doubt the best headphones I've ever owned but I'm moving soon and need to downsize my collection. They're in absolutely mint condition and were purchased around 7 months ago from an authorized dealer...

Like new Schiit Aegir. I'm the second owner but I've put less than an hour on it. I bought it for my Susvara but I don't like the pairing so there's no reason for me to keep it around. $650 shipped conus.

Sony IER-Z1R in good condition, purchased from Amazon around a year ago. They have some light scratches on the metal shell but are otherwise like-new. Includes all original accessories (tips and both cables). $1200 shipped conus.

I might give this a shot since I have the same issue as you where the loops don't bend aggressively enough and they end up floating behind my ears. Did you just cut the sleeve off with a utility knife?

Ah, I see. I didn't realize the hefty price tag of the shures either. 300 bucks is the most I'm willing to stretch my budget at this point, so I think I'm just going to go for the x2s when my next paycheck comes in. 

I've got the xl pads actually, haha. The m100s are punchy and fun to listen to, but don't really extend any deeper than the 650s, which is why I'm looking for something like the x2 or he400. Honestly, I'm pretty sold on the x2 though and will probably pick one up on amazon once they're back in...

Thanks for the suggestions, but I've tried both of the above and unfortunately they're both too uncomfortable for me to wear. The momentum's earcups are too small and the urbanites clamp too hard and I can only wear them for at most an hour at a time. Also, the momentum and urbanite aren't quite...

Wow, wasn't expecting this. The x2s are looking like a solid choice. Any suggestions? I haven't had much experience with closed back cans. I have a pair of vmoda m100s but the only time they get head time is when I'm at the library studying since they're so portable, but the 650 is on a...

How old are your original pads? In my experience, the pads tend to get compressed over time, so brand new pads are generally a bit taller than worn in ones.

Would you say that it's worth owning the x2s alongside the hd650s if I'm only using them for bassier music? I love the hd650 and I think it's somewhat of a jack of all trades like you're describing the x2s to be, but the only area I've found it lacking in is bass extension. The reason the x2...

Thanks MLE, I think I might just have to pick up a pair of x2s to try them for myself. I don't really mind worse mids than the 650, as all I'm looking for is a headphone with better bass extension for listening to hip-hop and edm. 

Do these dig significantly deeper than the hd650s in the bass department? I love my 650s but sometimes I'm left wanting more bass extension. I was thinking about picking up a pair of these or something like the he-400.

The material is worse than the originals, but not by too much. There weren't any glaring problems with them- they were just shallower. If they didn't change the sound so much I'd be keeping them.
