New Head-Fier
Pros: Excellent built and SQ
Cons: Volume knob a bit small
I must admit, i do not have hard-to-drive headphones but this little amp add nothing!
and thas a good thing!
Ok it adds power... that gives greater stability thus cleaner sound but soundwise no added coloration is what i meant.
 
I really like RSA Stuff!

New Head-Fier
Pros: Comfortable and entertaining
Cons: Could be more neutral
Good sound quality and good comfort. It is fairly lightweight but durable. The stock cable has some horrable mechanical transported contact noise (Some call it microphonics but microphonics is where mechanical vibration is transformed into electrical signal) so i replaced it with the HD650 stock cable. Yes i had to reverse the cups to make it fit.
I use it with a rockboxed iPod video and the RSA Hornet. Listening with crossfeed on i can listen to this combo for hours.
I listen mainly classical music. Opera, orchestral works, string quartets etc.
In my opinion, a closed can does not need to be perfect. i use a closed can to be isolated from outside noises but no passive closed headphone can isolate me for 100% so i will hear always hear some distracting noises
 
a great allrounder.
I do not really need a neutral sounding headphone since what is neutral nowadays? only my own ears listening to a live concert.
and my ears are not yours :)

Special discount some years ago for the Basic version. So i had to buy the velvet earpad separate.

New Head-Fier
Pros: Neutral sounding
Cons: does not fit my ears and head well
I tried many ways to fit these headphone but i can not find a way to make it fit confortable. i cannot listen to this headphone for more than 30 min than my ears start hurting. i tried bending and repositioning but it does not work for me. My trusted HD25-1 II with the velvet earpads and shortened HD650 cable sits much more comfortable on my head and can listen to it for hours.
Yes, the DT1350 is sonnically a bit more neutral / ballanced but what good does it when ears are hurting?
So comfort and quality must go hand in hand in my opinion.
Soon i'll try the amperior  :)

I also own the DT1350 and I have the same sentiments, though I can't compare them to the HD-25 (or any other supra-aural headphones for that matter) which was what I was considering along with these. While they do indeed sound great, I can't wear them for more than 20 minutes with glasses, and without after about 45 minutes it becomes slightly uncomfortable. I haven't tried any bending yet, so that may be an option, but I don't see them working out with glasses since they require a good clamp for the best sound quality. Stylistically and construction-wise, they are very nice, and quite neutral, but comfort is a major plus for me. Since I preferred something portable and with good isolation, I've moved into IEM territory. The Tesla driver is something though!

I wear also glasses so i needed to relief some pressure from the upper part of the pads. I bent the angular shaped bracket that holds the swivel a little inwards. Its made of steel so a bit tough to bend. i stopped fiddeling with it because i think i will sell them ...i wish i could buy some iem's but my ear canals are to small to fit any uni-fit iem...

BENDING IT OUTWARD LOTS OF TIMES WILL HELP
