Sorry you are getting rid of them.Count me in on the club thing. I cannot imagine unloading my 598. I love it too much.![]()
"Getting rid of" is too strong of a term! See below.
Count me in on the Sennheiser fan club! May I ask why are you selling them? It's such a shame; I would buy them in a heartbeat (I'm still wishing for an ivory pair) if I wasn't so financially broken.
This whole recent headphone buying journey started because I wanted to try something other than the 598. Ideally, I wanted something with more in the low end and, as I think I've said before, most of my listening is TV/movies. The X2 (also now for sale) fit the bill but came with too many problems (in particular the lack of comfort), the HD700 were extremely comfortable but I had slight nausea/headaches a few nights after using them (coincidence?) and, after Amazon agreed to refund me for the open-box, I decided to try the RS185 instead.
For our lifestyle, the wireless solution is perfect. I would like to hear other opinions of them because I think they offer slightly less fidelity of the 598, while having a thicker low end, no wires, perfect reception, and good comfort level. There's no downside to them for us over the 598. My GF will keep her 598 for work but I would rather pass mine on to someone who'll appreciate them rather than watch them collecting dust.
No matter what happens with the sale, I'll never unsubscribe from this thread. *insert crying emoticon here*. I can always steal my GF's pair anyway.
