I would have to live in the box that these are shipped in because my wife would kick me out of the house if she knew the cost. Wow. I hope they sound as good as they look. Regardless, these look stunning and I am sure will be a welcomed edition to someone's collection, I will just have to admire from afar.

Heard them at CanJam and they are truly excellent.

But I also heard the X9000 which are even better and cost half the price.

I don't think price is really an issue once you go into the true stratosphere of budget insensitive buyers, but it's hard to justify the market positioning.

But it is a remarkably beautiful piece of engineering!!!

Wow 11 bones! Most expensive regular amp headphone. Curious why make them so much. No such thing as Ferrari unless you are an actual Ferrari.

It’s because it’s made of Titanium. I talked with the (very nice) Italian guy who owns the firm at CanJam NYC in February when I auditioned it. Truly passionate guy. This was manufactured with no attention to coat and an attempt to build the most outrageous non compromising headphone material wise.. he succeeded in that

@HeadAmpTeam is the driver then unchanged from the original Valkyria?

It is interesting that when I first walked across the Abyss booth at Can Jam years ago, I thought nothing of them and was not even aware that they were one of the most highly regarded.

This same year at Cam Jam NYC, I did the same, walked right past this headphone booth not even aware that they were the most expensive headphones out.

I must have bad radars, haha.

Anyways, to pay that much for a headphone is not in my cards as I already feel headphones in the 5k 6k range already being borderline insanity. Sometimes I look at my Revel F208 speakers (list price 5k per pair) and think damn, my headphones cost as much as full cabinet speakers...

I then swim in a temporary moment of shame, until I throw the headphones on and the magic happens. *shrugs*

yea, rationalizing things isn't the way for this hobby

Takes it to Cloud 7? Not Cloud 9? How disappointing. Maybe that's in Revision 2 due out next year.
I will buy one of these for myself and all 13 of my family members. They too own mp3 players.

Once mine arrives I will dismantle it and come up with a mod to improve it using $3 Hobby Lobby felt and silly putty.

there is just no way a Headphone could be worth 11 thousand dollars, especially for a headphone that doesn't have a detachable cable. Is this madness or just a joke?

Looks like a cast and from what my research found it's reacts violent to oxygen

How do these differ from the OG?

 

[senorx12562]

Umm...ok. Very...expensive.

 

[Unseen Aura]

If I had the expendable income I would hands down get these. But predominantly because looks feel very much like Supernatural.
