Finally got them after a month.

First thing I noticed when I took them out of the box: dear lord they're HUGE! Like really, these things are twice the size Sennheiser HD212Pro's. They're really nicely built and look awesome though. I love the colour of them. When I put them on I noticed that they're so deep too. They just cover the whole side of your head and your ears get lost in them. They're very very comfortable, I love it.

Although I have got quite a small head, but oh well. They're huge. As for the sound, wow, after the first track I just said "ah, so that's what soundstage is" hehe. The seperation between the vocals and intruments is huge. Much better than my Senn's. These also sound a lot clearer and more detailed. I don't know the proper terms, but they just sound amazing. Much more enjoyable than my boring Sennheiser's. I've only been listening to them for about 15 minutes and I'm very impressed.

Now I just need an amp so I can use my DVD player with them.

Should I burn them in though? I've heard it works wonders for the headphones.

Just listen to them, they may get better with time. I'd love to give the AD's a go.

 

[Scottyyy]

Well I've got a bit of ear ache in my left ear.

So I don't think I'm going to be listening to them much today. So I might just play music through them. Wouldn't hurt, probably better than leaving them alone for a whole day. :O

the AD700s were my first good headphones and I agree, their soundstage is huge

such a gateway drug...

i say run while you still can and don't look back, lest you turn into a large mound of salt

Glad you finally got them. Treat those purple guys nice for me.

 

[riceboy]

Have fun with the new AD700. They'll give you tons of enjoyment until you would like to try to new cans

 

[Scottyyy]

Thanks guys.

Yeah they're so awesome. I love them. I haven't taken them off since my ear ache cleared up. I love that I can actually listen to more than 2 albums consecutivly now heh. My old Sennheisers used to get very painful after an hour of listening.

OH hey man if you just upgraded for the first time be careful about the volume! It is much cleaner now so you are likely to listen at louder than normal levels for long periods. Be aware of that and don't leave the volume up for long ok?

Thanks for the tip.

I've actually been listening at quieter levels because it disturbs my brother when he's in the room heh.

Time for some A900's

 

[WittyzTH]

no doubt it's the big step from the fart-like bassy HD212pro..

then go for AD2000's

 

[dissembled]

Team Obscura FTW baby. Whoo.

would probably consider them a sidestep. best to go AD900 or all out with the AD2000s =D

x2 definitely. A900's are much worse than AD900's IMO. Mids are gone in the closed cans!

Takes your evil opinion somewhere else, the man just got his AD700!!!
