nice. mine also arrived at mu U.S. shippin agent address but will have to wait to get them another week... I hope it is worth the wait though.
could you comment on sound ? as a first pair of cans for you, it is interesting to know what your thoughts are on them in general...
Sound wise, they're very spacious and natural sounding, with the former being not a surprise considering that they're open-back headphones, but that natural sound is very enjoyable. There's also quite a bit of sparkle. The bass however is a little subdued. It doesn't punch very hard and there's little sub-bass. I'm not sure if that's the norm with open-backs though. Instrument separation is good, but there's definitely room for improvement. I can tell that these are not top of the line headphones, even as an IEM user. Considering that I only paid $108 for them, I'm very happy. If there was ever an entry-level headphone that could convince an IEM user to drift over to this side, it would be the HD598.
