I think I am literally the biggest dingus of the century. I purchased both an HD600 and HD650. I seriously couldn't decide between the two. Oh well, expect a highly discounted HD650 or HD600 in the classifieds section within the next week.

Neither.

Thank you!
 
The HD 598's tracking page says it arrived to my city on Friday evening, but expected delivery is still Tuesday. Sigh... it's so hard to wait.

I ordered mine Friday and received them this morning (Sunday delivery).  Came from Las Vegas to Phoenix and had 2 day shipping.  I will go on Amazon later and make sure I didn't accidentally sign up for Prime.

That's awesome, how do you like them so far?
 
I'm a Prime member, I placed my order on Friday with 2-day shipping option, but my expected delivery date is Tuesday. Mine's coming in via UPS SurePost... how about yours? I guess weekend delivery policies vary from city to city.

Not sure if I should return my HD 650 for $500 CAD and jump on the Adorama deal for $260 USD then pick up at border....

And which warehouse they ship from. If you live close to a warehouse you'll get free 1 day delivery most times, and certain cities have Sunday delivery.
They always try to ship the cheapest method

Someone mind helping me make a simple decision with a recent DAP purchase?
 
I bought the Sensa clip+ on Friday, and am planning on putting Rockbox on it. My library is mostly MP3s right now but I am converting to FLAC and ALAC slowly. I end up using one of my IEMs most of the time. Should I buy the X3? My options are:
 
1. Keep the Clip+ order and continue using it with the VModa Verza
2. Get the Fiio X3 and cancel the Clip+ order
3. Get the Fiio and keep the Clip+ -> Do people have both right now? When would I use one over the other?

Mine came USPS.  I didn't even know they had Sunday delivery as an option.
 
I'm burning them in right now but I did take a quick listen and they sounded better than I thought they would.  I'll listen a bunch later this evening.  I previously had HD558 that I did the "598" modifications on but I believe these sound better.
 
I just bought them because they were such a good price.  I will probably give them to a nephew.  I already signed up for the AKG K7xx and I am shopping for Grado RS1 or PS500. I believe I have a preference for the former but I will probably let price and availability dictate the decision.

I would say do the 2nd option the x3 doubles as a dac and plays mp3's so you wouldn't need both seeing as how they are basically used for the same thing. Unless you want a cheap little player for the gym or something a bit lighter then the x3. I had both a rockboxed sansa fuze and a x3 the fuze stopped working after about a year so now I can't add any music to it and it freezes so....

over ear momentum is really an on ear fit for most people, so comfort is iffy. personally i found em uncomfy, but they do have real soft leather earpads and extremely lightweight, so i guess it depends on the user. i wld recommend tryon em if u can or gettin from a place w a good return policy

Ditto on them being a bit small.  Another 5mm would have made a big difference.
 
I actually notice them a lot when i first put them on, then I stop noticing them as much.

the clip+/zip is so cheap and small, i would keep it either way...use it as part of an ultraportable setup with a set of iems, or a beater setup for gym/beach/travel/etc.

Are you?  Or is it the guy who bought both the HD650 and HD700 last week?  >.>  
 
My HD700 comes in tomorrow, btw.  It's going to have to be pretty impressive to beat out the 650 at this point...

I think you'll find that they are different, and not directly comparable.
