My pair arrived a few days ago. Currently "appreciating" them for the first time (had to build up a wee bit more anticipation to make the payoff all the sweeter), and all I can say is WOW! Since they're only my second pair of higher-end phones (my FA-003s are feeling very neglected at the moment), this experience is the auditory equivalent of losing one's virginity to a gang of sex-starved supermodels. The Who's "Baba O'Riley" has never sounded so good. (Incidentally, I think that just became my new top track for auditioning/christening speakers and headphones.)
As this is my debut post here, I want to say a big, general "THANK YOU" to all who contribute to this site and these forums. Before I found this place - and despite having classified myself as an audiophile for as long as I can remember - I was just a naive babe lost in the dark and scary woods full of headphone brands, technologies and accessories. It all would have been pretty overwhelming were it not for the guidance I sought and found here, so I am most grateful. (I just looked for a smiley to add, but was dismayed to find that the top-ranked headphone on the site doesn't have its own - an unconscionable oversight!)
Enough of my rambling, I've got some sweet new cans to break in and a near-limitless supply of music with which to do so. LCD-2s, consider yourselves appreciated. Ditto, head-fi.org.
. Not looking for silver this time though.
