After acquiring the JVC HP-DX1000 in a trade, it has made me even more curious what the Fostex TH-600 would sound like with a good wooden cup. I realize I'm not going to get as much of a wood sound out of the Fostex (the JVC is directly mounted to the wood), but good lord is it pleasant. The Fostex is a little more fun sounding, but the JVC can be listened to forever and is absolutely sublime on some tracks. They also isolate well.
My wife wants me to sell one of them--and I can't decide which to sell--but I want to keep both.
@Blueshound24 Wish I could give you useful information. I did research myself and I'm a basshead who also loves clarity and ended up with the Fostex TH-600, in part because there were a lot of criticisms about the Pandora's comfort (earpad size and weight). I have tall/big ears and if other people have comfort issues, they would have been unwearable for me. For what it's worth, the Fostex as generally better-regarded than the Pandora.
