Gonna be a tough decision weather to go for the HE-4 or pick up a used HE-5 when the owners move to the HE-6 and start dumping off HE-5 in the FS forum.
Now that you mention it, better should wait until next month then I guess.

Not a tough decision at all. Just save up and buy an HE-6 yourself, then you won't have to eventually sell your HE-4 or HE-5 to buy it..

They got rid of half the magnets inside an HE-5LE. I wonder if they are using the same diaphragm pattern as the HE-5LE and simple removed magnets from one side, or created a new pattern with magnets placed further away from each other. Either way, this is going to be harder to drive...
Anyone got their HE-4 yet?

Not so early I guess. Even at Canjam the HE-4 didn't get a lot of attention compared to the HE-6.

I got to listen to HE-5 LE's yesterday at the White Plains meet. I'm pretty bent out of shape. They were really good. I know I'd need a better and more powerful amp, but I could make do for now. I plugged them into my setup and they did work. I will not buy a set new, they're just too much. If the HE-4 are very close, I would consider it. I'm waiting for reviews! If HE-5 LE's show up used for a similar price, I'd probably bite the bullet and buy them instead.
