This is the most closed minded thing I've seen in the new thread. It could very well sound like the best planar headphone in the world, in which case it IS priced accordingly. Comments like this just show that some people will complain all day regardless. What it sounds like is EVERYTHING. Especially when I've seen 3 impressions so far, all saying they are significantly better than the HEK 2. This is a forum for high end headphone audio. If you don't care what they sound like, maybe you should join complain-fi, where people don't care what things sound like, they just whinge.
$6000 price tag deserves more than just some good sound quality that will be obsolete in less than 12 months with edition 2. Build quality and materials need to be fantastic, R&D work needs to be extensive. It needs to be a headphone years in the making.
Not something that the creator goes walking around shows asking people how much he can get for it.
Closed minded? Psh. Perhaps I just demand a certain level of quality on premium products. Judging by others on this forum, I'm not the only one.
