Sonic Defender
Headphoneus Supremus
the 1As are pretty good headphones for on the go as they are easy to drive and very comfortable, more so than my momentums (first gen), MDR-7506 w/ beyer velour pads and Ath-M50 with shure velour pads. And yes sony stuff doesn't get much love around here. As for asking $155 it might be a little high, I think there were some post in the deals thread which had new ones at $145 somewhere.
Thanks for your thoughts. Regardless of "perceived head-fi value", the 1As are worth more than $155 easily. No matter, I took my ad down as I think they are quite nice so I will keep them for when I want to give my KEFs a rest for portable, or just want that sweet comfort and solid sound.
