Hi everyone.
After following this thread for a few days,I finally get myself one this morning.
It sounds great with my 80G ipod.

The only issue I have with this phones is my ears start to become hot after half an hour.Did anyone here have this kind of experience before??
Is it caused by the comfies??
Pls help me

just thought id my name to this fan club!! i bought my MS1s about a month ago from a man on Audiogon. they are almost three years old and sufficiently broken in, both in driver and cushions. i have no desire to go to HD414 pads as these are the most comfy "on ear" headphones ive ever put on my head. the pads have sort of turned brownish from the previous owner. can i dye them with black sharpie ink???

how long has the MS-1 been in existence?? does anyone know?

Can't comment on the pads, but I do know that MS-1 has been around since the summer of '01, and somewhat longer.

mmm when i'm sitting at my computer my ears don't get hot (unless im eating a very spicy curry

), only warm. but the one time i used them outside and i was walking my ears did get pretty hot. i also use the comfies.

Probably just foam on the ears makes it quite warm. Don't worry, I have the same problem, and the ears get pretty hot in the summertime. I use reversed HD-414 pads too, so not just the comfies.

Argh.. Can't wait till my MS1's come.. Does anybody know if they work on the weekends? This may make my delivery a little bit later than I originally thought since i ordered on a friday

Check the balance on your card, and if they've charged it, then your MS1's are on the way. I can't speak for shipping speed (I don't have mine yet, and you live in CA), so I'd guesstimate about a week before you get them.

I ordered mine yesterday, still nothing. I live in MA though, so it should be relatively speedy.

 

[Chickenman]

Hmm.. the problem is my dad ordered it with his credit card.. And he doesn't know how to check.. Guess I'll just wait for it this week

I have used MS-1 about 3 months now, and today I got MS-2i. I'm a bit surprised, because I can't say which one is better

Maybe tomorrow when "E-mu 0404 usb" arrives.

 

[saboteur1]

Mine have just shipped, can't wait 'til they come in.

The MS2i begins to show its' true potential when a better source and amp are present. But interestingly; I have a tendency to put on the MS-1 for those tunes which put me more on the stage or in the studio with the performers. I feel a better sense of intimacy with the MS-1, that the larger soundstage of the MS2i often loses.

I can also relax and enjoy the music a little more easily with MS-1. MS2i sometimes displays just too much stuff and tends to make you listen a bit more intently.

....and of course MS2i is a bit brighter and a whole bunch heavier.

Does Alessandro answer emails quickly? I just sent them an email to ask them when my order was coming.
