K 703.... In chocolate brown

I've got a better idea. How about the K801, and possibly, the K802 (different color / detachable cable).
 
Wait, there's more! Also, it finally regains...
 
A perfectly smooth, leather headband. No bumps whatsoever.

How about Sony? after making the legendary MDR-R10 and Qualia 010 , their current flagship models can't really compete to other brand. I hope Sony will notice the potential of headphone market and create a new legendary headphone for us.

I was thinking about this also. I don't know if it will help but I was wondering if we on this forum starts a petition to Sony to consider bring the R10 back will help

Fostex brought along a supposed high end woodie dynamic to a Japanese headphones show about a year ago. Not sure how end it is supposed to be or when it is supposed to be released but they had some photos of the extensive work put into making the wood cups. Hopefully that effort in cups is representative of work put into drivers.

Yes, what is the end of that story? It was on youtube, a visit to their shop where all woodcups are made.

Bone phone without need for amplification maybe. That would the bomb to amp makers.

Fostex??? They started off with making budget multi-tracks reel to reel machines, didn't they? Think I used to own a demagnetizer made by them. Looks like they have come a long way since!!!

You might be surprised - Fostex is OEM for a lot of products that are eventually rebranded by other companies.  They're huge.

ROFL, the K801 is white and the K802 is black. Hmm.. I feel it like a deja vu.

Maybe they could get a Manufaktur type deal going on. I call lightning bolts!

 

[Danz03]

Wow! That's amazing! Should have kept the de-magnetizer, probably will end up as a museum piece eventually! 

But seriously, they were really good at making good quality multi-tracks back then for a reasonable price.

You know about the Ultrasone Edition 10, right?
 
Because that is the only headphone I currently know of that *might* surpass what has been done.
 

That might mean something to me if I ever heard an Ultrasone headphone that I really liked.

 

[crucial]

How about the RudiStor Chroma MD1 headphones? Although, info about the phones is no longer present on the RudiStor website.
