General question--can a portable (ipod) drive these are would someone have to haul an amp around too. I noticed they're 32 ohms, but I'm not sure how they would sound straight from a portable. I'm trying to convince a friend of mine to bid on them. I've heard these through a home system (and they sound great to my ears) but never a portable. Thanks.

Really overkill, but I thought the CD3Ks sounded surprisingly great straight from the iPod.

Looks like the guy has a Stax Omega case sitting next to the CD-3000's in one pic. Maybe this guy is a head-fi member?
Look at the last picture.
One of the pads is "buldging" quite a bit at the bottom.
Is that normal?
Also, the seller list "leather", but it's really "pleather" ear pads and headband covering.
Seller has 100% feedback. Nice.

I thought the Omega came in a wooden box and the Omega II comes in a crazy Faux Carbon Fiber box?

and I guess he has a ATH-W2002 too? at least it looks like he has the case for that (in the picture Edwood posted).

Definitely not normal.

Probably he removed it, and mounted it later in a wrong way, it has to be positioned in the right way, or it will do that, as one side is wider than the other if you twist it, it will definitelly go that way....

I meant the Omega II. The Omega does come in a wooden box but the Omega II comes in the equivalent of a Pelican case. Looks just like the one in the picture.

He says he treats them very carefully, then why is the cord pinched in the box in that picture?

The latch of the box is open, the cord is not pinched, I had left mine many times like that and there is no problems so far the edge of the box are round and soft enough...

Well, trying to load the pics to make a closer observation of the latch, I think we killed that guys bandwidth.

You don't need to look it closer, every one that owns that box will notice imediatelly that the latch is open, the pivot is up, to close it you have to move that pivot down

i emailed the seller about that bulge in the earpad...he said it's just a bad angle - there's nothing wrong with it. great feedback, so i believe him.
