that would be perfect, but I can either buy it this weekend for 210€ or afterwards for 299€
why are you so shure the h3 is an upgrade to xba40?
not sure if this has been posted, the will officially release the h3 in japan on the 25th october for 36800 yen, i ve seen it and looks so big, and will not fit in everyones ears, although it does have a ear loop.
i will give this a miss until i get a chances to test the real thing, in the mean time just purchased yesterday the xba 4 for 136 usd. and wil be getting the ex800st today for 223 usd.
Did you get a chance to hear it?
The H3 looks overweight compared to the EX1000.
Well, it looks like what you'd expect if you crossed a beauty like the EX1000 with a beast like the XBA-40...
I hope it's lightweight though!
Specs have the H3 at 2g heavier than the XBA-4 (10g vs 8g) - the MDR-7550 is also listed at 8g - not sure how the shape/balance affects the pressure on the outer ear, especially with the cord attached - but the hangers ought to mitigate it appreciably.
