what an underwhelming release :/
I was expecting something a bit more for their 50th

Audio-technica still does the best looking wooden cups out there, the finish is just sublime.I really hope they bring up their sound to the same level as their looks.
Not impressed with these new releases, of these new headphones & matching amp; kind of kitsch looking. What I like with the W5000 is their discreet look, and without a wooden jack connector. Of course these are trivial considerations; that the W3000 sound better than the W5000 or not is the only serious question.
However, since aesthetics do count to a certain extent to me, I'll pass in any case, and besides, I still have the HA5000 to acquire...
Very, very pretty headphones!
Unfortunately it looks unlikely that I'll get a chance to try them out over here in Europe
