Looking at the zoomed in pics it looks slightly cheap... for a $450 headphone.

If you zoom in a lot on the photo in this link you can tell that they're recessed.
I hope this makes the SM3 v1's go down in price, I'd still be happy with a pair of those =)
According to Franck, if SM3 V1s were purchased before February 1st, the cost to 'upgrade to V2' is 30€. If after, then upgrade is free.
Also, separate from the cost to upgrade, you would need to shell out an additional 37€ for the new cable. Goes without saying that you would also need to ship your V1 to them.
I'm not sure if the above quotes are with/without tax, but I intend on sending mine in as the angular housings really hurt my ears yet I love their sound too much to get them re-shelled to customs.
Hope the above info helps some people
Kind of a good thing that I decided not to buy SM3 about two weeks ago. I hope they do retune the SM3 and gives it just a little more treble on the v2.
Agree, that's what it needs, a little amount of presence in the highs. Even though I liked the original SM3 already. Can't wait.
I am thinking of sending my pair in for warranty/repair I think I will see if they will give an upgrade price or something. If so I will post some impressions.
