Ha ha! Very funny! Btw, credit for "do it" goes to the master troll motivator himself... sfwalcer
Well, truth is I'm no fan of ordering online. I prefer to be able to return them right away if I don't like what I hear. Besides, I'm happy enough with my Koss Pro DJ100's and Porta Pro's if I want to listen with on ear heaphones.
Now if the ones I picked up at the Source had been the same S500's, well that would have been sweet.
Edit. Browsed ebay, thinking about ordering a pair of S500's now
Can anyone recommend who I should buy from? If they have anything like the sound I'm hearing from these FXT90's I may just have to...gulp...order from ebay.
Peace,

Haha don't delay it mate, how do you think most of us on Head - Fi buy our stuff? Japan and China are the centre of technological advancement.
Btw, I used jp-ken seller on eBay. He ships quick and is a good friend of mine.

He's also got the Gunmetal model, just message him about it.
Does JVC or anyone else make a full size, circumaural version of this? With the same kind of driver? Thanks.
^ What 7S said, but i have this feeling JVC is gonna release their full size CNT headphone real soon, all speculation on my part of course but how can they not have any answers for what ATH unloaded this year.
But yeah it seems that for now, the ATH WS99 are these best bang for the buck that is akin to a complete full size upgraded version of the S500s.
There's the HA-S770, but it doesn't sound nearly as good I've heard. I think you're best bet would be to get the S500s and purchase the HM5 pads. If you want the pads to stay on better you'll need some rings as well. If you don't mind spending the money you could go with the WS99s, which is the most similar type of sound I can think of.
You been out drinking again? lol
