Sorry, they only had A700 in stock =\
Anyone else can help this man?
Ah its no problem. I'm really starting to think that, considering the cost, it might not be worth it to do such a minor upgrade for so much money. I'd be better saving up and doing a full equipment upgrade for my home listening.

I have the itch to upgrade. Budget is around $100, give or take a few.
My Audio Technica ATH-A500s are 6 years old now. Still going strong!
I'd like something with a similar but better sound.
I'm looking at Sennheiser HD555 and the Audio Technica ATH-A700. Possibly the Sennheiser HD280Pro?
Any suggestions?

Anyone own both the A500 and A700? Worth the upgrade?
Ah, my gateway drug! I remember having those. Honestly, I felt my modded A500's sounded better than the A700's. Anything around $100 is a sidegrade and not worth it.
No response to my post?
Yeah thats what I'm thinking. I love my A500s. I'm just terrified about them dying because they're so old haha. But they are still working beautifully for the time being.
How did you mod them?
I think at this point it'd be better to do a full setup upgrade to actually get an upgrade. Not just to have something new that might or might not sound better or just "different".
If I did end up spending that much money on headphones right now it'd probably be best to go for something that sounds completely different and gives a completely different experience. But I'm picky. heh. I think I'm going to look at upgrades for portable headphones, since my KSC-75s are starting to show their age and a lot of wear and tear.
Anyone know where I can get some replacement pads for my A500s? Pleather is gone completely.
