True legend but worth to mention that channel imbalance in some copies. Multimeter + sound (noise) meter would be welcome at buying them I had Z1R at home and IMVHO they are beyond MDR-CD3000 in pure sound quality. Completely different sound signature (fun vs refinement). Sorry but I didn't liked Z1R. Much preffer cheaper Z7m2 with EQ.
Back around 2007 I got hooked on the SONY MDR-D77 egg shaped headphone which I used for recording. It was amazing. The model had been discontinued by the time I discovered it. My set broke and the repair shop I took it to screwed it up. I searched and got another one on eBay, paying a big premium because apparently I wasn’t the only one who thought it was great. That set eventually broke too. The R10 looks similar in some respects, I wonder if it’s an evolution of the D77. Nice review.
