Creative dings me for tax so I am vacillating between $60 CALs and $70  ZX700 mentioned up thread. Decisions, decisions. 

For what it is worth, I can recommend the ZX700; been thoroughly impressed with them for the last few months - good sound and great build quality.

Quick question:
Anyone ever hear of an online store called Camovere?  Seems to be UK and Chinese?  Prices seem way way too low to be legit, but I couldn't find any mention of them in the forums or any reviews of them online.  Figured it would be worth asking as I couldn't have been the only one to run across this and be tempted.
http://camover.co.uk/
 
And anyone seen any decent deals on the Phaiton MS400 or Beyerdynamic MMX 300?  (Did a shopping search on the MS400 which is where Camover popped up)

^ wow! low prices!......hmm?? As far as I know, there are No Fakes/Replicas of these headphones(Denon D7000, Sennheiser HD 650,etc.)
 
and if  it's Paypaled, aren't we covered?.......I might have to take one for the team again...

For a site that doesn't even spell its own name right - is it Camovere (as in its logo), or Camover (as in the URL) - I would be very cautious.

They want $258 for D7000s? Yeah, that's pretty shady.

Guys, you might want to scan your computers if you don't use NoScript and went on that webpage.. That camover site has a hidden javascript in it "js.users.51.la", and googling it seems to show it is often used in scamming schemes (source: http://blog.dynamoo.com/2008/06/one-to-watch-jsusers51la.html). So, pay attention.
If nothing else, I'd at least take that as a clear sign to not even consider giving them any money-related info - it really smells way too fishy to be anything remotely legit.

 

[wormsdriver]

If they started making fake higher end headphones, amps, and dacs were in a whole lot of trouble! I always buy from authorized dealers when buying new, but I definitely don't mine buying used gear on HeadFi. The problem is lots of people will buy fakes and then sell them used....

I think it's more likely to be one of those shops where you never receive anything.

^ I agree

 

[Enosche]

And to finish with Comover(e)...check the bottom of the site where it shows McAffee Secure, Verisign Secure, and Paypal Verified....In a legitimate site, these would be links to their respective sites to view the Vendors Certificate of Authenticity on those sites....they just seem to be images and not links...compare it to a legitimate site like:
 

 

[Foamybrian]

It's a scam site. Their orders are fulfilled by ESC International Trade Co. Ltd.; a quick Google search on that name should confirm that you'll never get any products you purchase from that website. Also a dead giveaway: their contact page refuses to give you a telephone number unless you place an order.

It's being shipped from China directly. 
 
May be authentic, may be fake.

No..I'm talking about the Sennheiser HD 650. It's a step above either Shure offering.
Edit: Why on earth would you get a closed headphone for jazz?

I currently have Sennheiser HD555 with foam mods. I love them and they are great for jazz but they simply leak too much. The reason I am looking for closed headphones is because I am moving into a dorm and don't want to disturb my roommate as I am fairly nocturnal.

thus, my search for closed headphones that are as good or better than my HD555s for jazz and don't leak a lot.

What about some high end ultrasones? ;P
I believe the Edition 8 is considered by many to be the ultimate closed can, also they recently came out with the signature pro which from many observations seems even slightly better than the ED8 and is cheaper. Though, it depends on your price range.

 

[sulkoudai]

I'm really tempted by Camovere.co.uk. 
 
I can use Paypal so wouldn't i get my money back if its fake or something??
