I was too late the first time but got them now. I have always used a iPod or iPhone so i'm curious how this will sound.

The D2k for $300+ is a good deal now...
 
I remember even 2 years ago when I could've picked them up used on eBay for like $150.

Paying a premium for discontinued non-exclusive products is not the wisest idea. 

well actually, i don't see them depreciating soon, there isn't anything available at that price with that sound. Bassy, but not too much, warm and euphoric, a fun headphone, thats easily driveable (but benefits from an upgrade) 
 
But then again if Fostex brings out a TH300 I see them plummeting.
 
 
ANd guys keep me informed about the Colourfly C3 - btw may be a good idea to ask Colorful if they are legit.

had the zx700, not impressed with the sound signature, not sure if I want to pull the trigger, but heck this is a great price.

 
Very refined compared to the ZX700. I think the 1Rs will continue to drop, and within 6 months the $180 price will be a norm. In the meantime, this is a pretty good price. Although the bluetooth one was selling somewhere for $225, which isn't too bad either.

Im debating these or the amperior, i can grab those cans for 160(refurb). note that I have a hd555 at home, and the akg k518le and k67 on2go, Not sure if I like the amperior or not either cuz i'm not a fan of the treble on those guys.

Thanks, pulled the trigger.  Been looking at some headphones around $300 and this was a good deal.  Sad I missed Fidelio L1's for $150 last week though.

Best buy has $50 off $100 in stores using mastercard with this printable coupon: http://image.emailinfo2.bestbuy.com/lib/fef41d77766c04/m/43/13729-2_MasterCardPromo_Coupon_final.pdf
 
Note: excludes Bose, Denon, Sony, Sennheiser, Magnolia (may include some stuff like Pioneer headphones, AKG k550), B&W and others
 
Pretty extensive exclusion list..........................................

 

Just as a note I decided to see if I could find anything of interest to me and I did end up finding an item. I found out that the coupon has already been cancelled by Mastercard, but the manager was great and went ahead and went through with it. So just to let you know it's supposed to be cancelled. I did get lucky and pick up a nice webcam in the process. No headphones that really interested me and any that weren't didn't interest me.
