Agreed, happy to have them and put a few hours on them.

Christmas has been good for many reasons. Among these, my new headphones at work: the Nightowl and the Nighthawk, side by side. They replace the LCD-2CB (too heavy for long listening) and the HD-650 (too similar to the HD-600).
Interesting. I am a new owner of some Owls. I just picked up the LCD2C largely because the holiday pricing was tempting me and had planned on selling off the Owls. The LCD2C haven't arrived yet but I may decide to keep them both for a while. How did you like the sound of the 2C versus the Owls setting aside the weight issue?
I don’t usually listen to Adele but damn, the NightOwls really bring that song - Rolling in the Deep out
I can't stand her 21 album (2011 release, lossless) due to audible distortion in her voice and severely compressed dynamic range. Not sure why people use this Adele album as an example of a good recording (the 2013 unmasters release is much better though). Which source did you use for Rolling in the Deep?
Here is the dynamic range of the album I have (my wife has actually).

That said, I agree with the spirit of what you are saying (at least with my Nighthawks)!
Is there a point of getting the Nightowls when I already own the 2C's? Are they different enough to own them both?
