I've read a lot about the 8.35s, and I neglected to recommend that to my friend. I'll throw it his way. Thanks for the reminder.
and dont forget Soundmagic HP100 i suggested earlier
So what did he end up getting? And does he like 'em?
I don't think they're a super high priority right now. He's got some in-ears and the Klipsch ProMedia 2.1s, so I don't think he's too rushed.
Uh, well, actually, those are headphones I've owned previously. I currently own only two full-size cans, the Philips Citiscape Uptowns, and the Superlux HD668Bs (which I'm trying to sell).
When I get paid next week, I'm going to be buying some more headphones; I'm thinking about either the SoundMAGIC HP100s or the Sennheiser HD 600s. This might sound like a no-brainer to some, especially since I can get them for about the same price, but isolation is a concern (I have two roommates in a rather small room), and I don't think the Sennheisers will be going anywhere soon. I noticed a definite increase in clarity from the Uptowns when I tried the A900X, and since that experience a few weeks ago, I've been craving clarity, which the HP100s are supposed to have, although I'm slightly concerned about their long-term durability, due to all the hinges and the path of the cable through them to get to the right driver. I've owned the HD 600s before, and I remember them having decent clarity, but constant reviews about their slight veil has brought a few doubts into my mind. I still plan on purchasing them at some point, whether now or later.
