On the flip side, when you pay an amount you feel financially like most people with $600-$3000 headphones you tend to rationalize the purchase more than something that costs $180(or less), especially if you feel that the cheaper purchase makes other parts of your collection redundant. Either way, hope the OEM for the drivers keeps making exciting new stuff, even if its a pain in the ass to discover what its in.
Hope that sooner or later we will find out who's the OEM. I think it's Takstar themselves. They sure have the means and experience to develop and manufacture something like this.
