That's kinda scary!

 
Well, they were supposed to ship today with tracking emailed, overnight, but no tracking number and still listed as processing, even when i checked again the afternoon after ordering and was assured without even taking my order number that it would go out.

 
I always type run on sentences when i am mad.  Regrettably i am an instant gratification type, a bit juvenile i know.

This ugly method works for me. =)

I use a rubber band.

There's something about the W3000ANV that stimulates the "affection" gland...my review just posted on AvGuide's Playback section

i enjoyed your review. i think it made me appreciate owning the w3000anv even more and the pics do its visual beauty justice. like skylab, i wouldn't describe the bass in those terms but no biggie.

They actually clamp my head pretty hard!

Dallan, I'm just like you...i read all the posts, research diligently and then once i pull the trigger I want the cans yesterday haha...
 
as for the comments regarding the bass...i was suprised on how deep and nice the bass is now (200 hrs burn-100 on head)...but it never obscures the midrange which i have found rare in other phones with nice bass...love these cans
 

 

[dallan]

Yeah, they are coming Thursday now and refunding my overnite shippi.ng, which is fair. So another day. At least I have Ed8 AND DX1000 to keep me company

Hope you find them to be worth the wait. They're very nice headphones

Anyone considering W3000ANV check out my sale thread or PM me, Im giving over $200 off from new

I am looking for a dac + amp for my ATH W3000anv.
As it is obviously not hard to drive  I guess the quality of the source may be the main concern.
 
I am currently considering the combo Bifrost + Asgard or the Audio-GD NFB 5.2.
Any thoughts about it?
 
(I would like not to spend more than 500/600€)
 
Thanks!

A lot better than the 1 star review on Amazon that someone posted a few days back. 

 It's fine if one doesn't love the W3000ANV. It's not my favorite A-T... But 1 star? Yea, alright.

 

[dallan]

Finally got them.  Not great on the mobile amp but on the v200 great.  Gorgeous too.

 

[shimmer n roar]

glad they showed up.

Some good points about them.  I especially agree with the disappointment with the box that came with it.  Would have liked something a little more reusable and protective like the one that comes with the W5000.
