Do the heating/sweating problems disappear in the winter and it becomes a feature, or is it still undesirable despite the cold temperature?

 
I haven't had them long enough, but I'm looking forward to them during the winter months because they do get warmer compared to other closed cans - at least that's my perception. hehe a 'warm' feature

I prefer the k550 for gaming over all my other cans.
 
The sharp sounds and detail and low level detail seriously gets my attention.

Sharp sounds which these give seriously gets my attention it is more easier for me to locate where sound comes from more quickly without careful listening.
