I'm looking for a backup set of phones for those few days when I don't feel like putting UE11s inside my ears. I'd mostly be using these in a gym where I move around, so a tight fit is also important. What do you think? |

If the pads are just broken in, would you anticipate the 780s becoming close to that? I know that was kinda confusing, but if you look at the pix, I'm referring to the wrinkly leather on the esw9s. The 780s look stiff and... new. Probably b/c they are... |

Me, I'm often found wearing my larger, rounder and more garishly BLUE PROlines on public transport, so the new HFIs are, by comparison, streamline, svelte and discreet! |
