Why didn't you tell me this earlier... :p I asked the seller for a possible exchange. Small chance, but who knows. It's a shame really. The Havi B3 I have at home right now looks and feels the part, but sounds like a $10 IEM. :frowning2:

Somewhat off topic, but there really isn't any topic here (not completely true, but it's very loose here), did want to tap the collective wisdom here. There are gone Hifiman HE-400 at Amazon for a very good price... Any one know /like /despise these (or other feelings or impressions)?

Like them? I have the HE-500, and they are unreal. The HE-400 at $299 is an excellent buy.
 
I do want to sell mine though (to get the HE-560)

I currently use the he400 for home listening, and absolutely love the sound. At their original price of 400 they were considered to be an excellent value, possibly one of the last headphones before diminishing returns for cost kicks in. They are very much an open phone where sound not only leaks out, but floods. While not necessarily at basshead levels, there is no denying the bass is one of its best features. The main complaint I have about them is the cable is long and bulky, and replacement cables are expensive due to a non standard headphone connection.

@DannyBai

Nice Heaven V impressions and comparisons!

I always have trouble when people ask if they are better than something else. It's always like, ummm it depends haha. But just listening to them this morning, soooo happy.

For anyone on the fence and wants other than sound info, cables are microphonic but very supple so wearing them down and just loosely looping them over your ear is reaaaally easy and works a charm, because they are flat and are angled perfectly for doing so. There's a picture in the FAD thread... Somewhere.

Thank you! I'm not a fan of doing comparisons or reviews but will try and do what I can when asked.

As for the cable, I'm not a fan of flat cables but FAD has accomplished a very nice flat cable here.

I guess the body question is, do I jump in (they are selling some new ones for $299 as wel), or hold off for something like the 5s, or LCD2?

True, it's my money, till I give it away (I try to think of it as doing my part for the economy, adding stimulus)
