I am gonna preorder one. Since it have not listened to either. Can someone help me? The price difference is huge. I am using EX300ip and I like how quick they sound. Am I gonna get that much more going to the top model?

Sony emailed me and said it will not ship until March so I canceled it and will go with JR.com because I have a $50 gift card. They have both models available for preorder, Sony only had the EX1000. What right? So now I must decide which one.

hmmm. I have a feeling that if you get the 600s, youre always going to be wondering what the 1000s sound like if you aren't completely blown away by the 6's. Like if the highs aren't spectacular, you'll be like why didn't I just pony up for the big guns?
 
thats weird though, sony style says the 1000s are in stock shipping tomorrow (yesterday when i checked). maybe it just wasn't meant to be. What about the 800st's? haven't heard squat about them in a while. when are we going to see these stateside?
 
wow.. I like sony too much

I emailed a dealer about the MDR7550 (MDR-EX800) but never got a response.

Sony Style site is crap! When I ordered mine it said it will ship 2/15/11. Got an email on 2/18/11 that said it won't ship until March 1, 2011. Called them about that and they have no idea when it will ship. The date shown is an estimate.

I was hoping someone here can save me some money by saying the ex1000 is not worth the high price. :D

Just got off the phone with JR.com. They will do $449 shipped for the EX1000. I just ordered it with them. Much better deal than Sony Style. Saved $50 and tax.

Ships on 3/9/11 so that should be nice.

Nice deal, calling JR is always worthwhile. I can see these getting closer and closer, bet the street price will drop faster than the W4s.

Wow, you waited for exactly 8 minutes between these two posts for someone to hold you back!

My MDR-EX1000 shipped from JR.com today.  Should be here on Tuesday!  Stay tuned for my unboxing video and impressions.

I paid an extra $10 to get 2 days shipping.
