Quote: Funny you took mine.  Apparently they had issue with my billing and shipping address being different and delayed my order.  But they placed me on backorder.  Can't blame em...this isn't the first time this happened to me.

Well, I guess I must be lucky.  My 6000's are fine.

Quote:   There's like a little dead zone in the middle between on and off where I'll get no sound.  It's not a big deal in my book.

Quote: None of the controls work with my Motorola Droid Razr MAXX.  It runs on Android 4.0.  It's not a big deal in my book, but I really like the cable.  It's nice and beefy.

Quote:   Thanks for that.  I was definitely sitting on the fence with the M-100, but that $300 price tag scared me away a bit.  I'm glad I waited and stumbled onto the 6000's.  IMO, the deeper cups on the 6000 are extremely important as I have pretty big ears.  I am happy with these...

Quote: On that note, if you do find the sound to be better in wired passive mode, I think it'd be best if you returned the 9000's and picked up the 6000.  You'd save yourself about $200.

These should be here in 2 days or so.  I was just wondering how well these work amped/unamped.  Would a $100 dac/amp greatly improve performance or does it sound just fine without it? 

Thinking about picking up a pair of white 6000's this weekend.  

Ultras?  After a quick look on the internet, I found that some places are carrying them, such as amazon and J&R, but its not on the Sol website (EDIT: It's on their shop site).  Any more information on these?  A good bite at $180?

Quote: I'd love a review too.

EDIT: Not a sale but Amazon tricking me into thinking it did.

Quote: Too bad those AKG's are not portable and even though Quincy Jones is a much better producer than Dr. Dre, Dre is still more popular than Quincy Jones.  Also, the beats are advertised much heavier than the AKGs.

I would rather see an advertisement that says the hinges are reinforced with some extra strength steel than they are the new Valhallian Valkyrie hinges made by Odin himself.   Also, cool names do not apply to the general public.  What marketing do you see on the beats?  Dr. Dre.  Thats it. ...

Quote: Thanks!

Hey mark, I'm looking to pair these with a fiio e10.  Do you know where I can buy a 75ohm adapter?

Quote: That is one bad-ass design.

Val,   I like the sound of Signature Series.  I think all of the other names are too...corny and childish.  Thats just my own opinion.  I wouldn't exactly want to a buy a $300 headphone called the Valkyrie.  Instead, the M-100 Signature Series sounds like an actual high end headphone.  ...

Quote:   If you are asking for a 60 day return policy with pre-production units, then you have no decency and should not deserve a pre-production unit.   As for questions about the sound and amping, I feel it is best to leave that to the head-fi community.  You're also asking for...

Quote: Seriously?  Those are more expensive than the m100's themselves.

Quote: They should be fine for games.  I've played CS:S with IEMs just fine.   There are many options for cheap DAC/AMPs.  I'm also considering the u-dac2, but I'm having trouble convincing myself the amp is strong enough for the M100.  On the other hand, I'm strongly considering the...
