And since it was such a good deal, I decided to bite. I really haven't read much on the cans prior to purchase. I think Headroom talked about it like it was a truly awesome headphone. Since I've bought it, I've looked around and it seems there's been somewhat of a buzz regarding these cans. I've only got two closed cans (one inexpensive/one very expensive), and neither of which are really that comfortable. Well, I guess the MDR V6 with the velvet pads are pretty comfy. But anyways, I've been really enjoying my headphone (RS1) listening at work, a lot, so I thought I'd give these a try. They look really comfy and are praised to sound quite impressive so needless to say, I'm looking forward to hearing them. Having said that, after I bought these, I read the comparison to the DX1000 and the mention of their huge soundstage (I'm a soundstage nut) and thought, "Damn, I should've looked for those." The bad thing about this hobby is that it's impossible (at least for me) to compare the two unless I've got both so maybe at some point in the future I'll keep an eye out for a pair of those, too. (preferably used and inexpensive). |

I have both but the D7000 are balanced and the DX1000 are SE. I like the D7000 better specially now with the JMoney lather ear pads. |

We can all dream, right? I understand the balanced part, but the SE part...what, exactly, is that? Yessiree. It was such a great deal that I had to jump on it without much forethought. |
