Headphoneus Supremus
Have you had a chance to hear it?
Yes, on two occasions (IFA Berlin and a small show in Vienna). I think I posted impressions and photos earlier in this thread.

Cool. Do you think it's overpriced or just not tuned right? Are there redeeming technical attributes that a that make it competitive at that price like super tight bass or high resolution?

While I think its price is still a bit steep, even when considering the very good build quality and wearing comfort, what put me off was a tendency to sibilance that was simply not to my liking. While I don't want to tell anyone what to like, it is not a headphone I would consider to recommend.
Its rather heavy, which is understandable given that it seems to be made mostly of metal, and feels very good in hand, a premium product. Not simply overpriced junk where the price tag is intended to make one laugh.

Thanks for the response.. I read that post. Just looking for some possible redeeming qualities because I have not read many if any.
The silence in response speaks for itself it might seem...
To me: no. They are not for me. But other seem to like them. As in most cases I'd suggest to try them out before buying them.
Yeah I'm starting to get this picture, would you say they'd be worth half their normal price? (work in a store that stocks them)
Sounds like a TH900 to me. Definitely interested

I've never heard a TH900... the closest thing I've heard I guess is a D5000.
From memory I think they're still kinda different.
The T700 bass definitely isn't a 'pouding' kind of bass. It's not lean either. Just superbly extended and well textured/detailed.
I hate to throw out such a dangerous word, but I guess the bass is close to neutral.
GREQ you ******
now I wanna try one
Actually, the frequency range is 3 – 100,000Hz. I own these now and can attest to tight, dynamic bass response.
