Was wondering how these stack up against the sennheiser ie80's. also does anyone know where to get these cheap?

I cannot deny at all that I thoroughly love the QE80. During my critical listening phase, it even happened quite often that I was just sucked into the music and totally forgot to take notes or compare it.

Though it is not the technically best compared to the DN-2000J and FLC8s, I personally find it the overall most harmonious and a heck of fun.
FLC8s: extreme versatility, excellent midrange, bass speed and separation
DN-2000J: the most "magical" with fast yet tactile bass and a really good soundstage
PRIMACY: the smoothest and most easygoing, with a quick bass response
A83/QE80: extremely enjoyable, v-shaped with bright yet very even treble

Do you prefer them over the A83.
I'm a little late to the party, hope you don't mind. I posted something similar in another thread before, but anyway, are the Fidue A83s good for stage monitoring? Based on reviews--and I've read a lot--the sound signature seems to fit what I have in mind, but I wonder if it can handle being plugged into headphone amplifiers regularly. At 11 ohms, impedance is pretty low, and I'm a little worried about wrecking it. I do use a a Shure SE215 though, and that thing's at 16 ohms, if I'm not mistaken.
Also, does the A83 now come with a neck cinch?
