If people can put hm5s on sz2000s then you can stretch them onto the sigs. The worst case would be if the headphone rim was too small.

 
They totally fit with Dj1, and Sig Dj - but Pro900 and Dj One Pro have a different lock mechanism, you can't stretch a pad over them, and their cups are actually a bit smaller..

Whoa!  With drop after drop I wish they would all just be fully available at all times.

I wouldn't know how good the price of $450 is until I heard the headphones for myself.

Well if anyone here gets the purpleheart and can compare to mahogany, I'd love to get the basshead perspective on the differences.  Reviews are pretty mixed on how significant the variations are, but here, a focus on dat bass would really just help clear things up.  I.e. how does the specified +2 dB boost in bass really sound in the real world.

Woohoo I knew it was coming from the other 2 dropping. I didn't expect it to drop while the EB was still going though. I haven't tried to Mahogany to be able to compare once I eventually get my set from this drop though

But they are Nep Nep headphones!...
 
The discount seems good tho.

It's hardly a meaningful discount when it's only available on Massdrop.

Why such a negative view over Nep Nep headphones?

But can they Nep like a nepping pro who neps Nep Neps every day since the early days of nepping?  (i wasn't sure what nep nep was and stole this quote from search results lol)

Funny but I actually own a pair of real NEP NEP earbuds that came with the collectors edition of the game. Lol.

Didn't know there existed a Nep Nep earbud! How do they sound?

Oh, I get that, but TX00 seem well regarded out there (?) 

IDK, I probably wouldn't get one as I am fixated on really crisp / sharp / U shaped / treble happy signatures - but I also love bass 

 
After having heard a few fostex models, I am left with a similar impression like LCD series. Great sound technically, but I will need more treble. Ultrasone doesn't have enough treble either for me without EQ - only ie800 / HD800S truly satisfies my hunger. 
 
On the other hand, I think that Ultrasone Dj sig and Dj One Pro are exactly where most people would like them, while Pro880 seems to be regarded as smoother - so more people might like them

Ok, I tried doing a paper test for my Audio Technica ATH-WS770iS. I have no clue if I did it right, lol. I had my MacBook Pro out trying some music players and decided what the hell, I'll make a vid real quick. The player was Clementine, no eq cuz I don't believe the player has one, to my iFi Micro iDSD with X Bass switched on. I've sinced switched to Audirvana, a much better player imo. Anyway, here is the vid, let me know what you think.
