My order is finally coming tomorrow! Can't wait for these to arrive. Woohoo.

Im about 3 and a half hours in now and something in the sound signature has changed drastically in the last 15 minutes - i was listening to black or white by Michael Jackson and all of a sudden i can hear this acoustic guitar in the chorus that wasn't there before on the 650's or at least i didn't notice it. WOW what is it gonna be like after 150 hours burn in. Also did anyone know that in the song human nature there are steel pans or chimes? - its the first i have heard of it. even the most subtle sounds are brought directly to attention without getting in the way of anything else. I just realised i have not listened to anything  classical yet. Shostakovich here i come!!!!

Glad to see that you love the T1 as much as I love mine. If not even more !
My reference song is Mono - Dream Odyssey :
 

 
8 minutes long track, but an absolute delight :).

Do you mind showing me a picture of the headphones in the case? Thanks in advance

Yes, please - a picture proving that the T1 can fit inside with the case closed!

 
 

 

 
sorry about the washout and blurry picture.. the shutter speed is about 1.6s XD 
 
I just experimented with the T1, the case is for my DT770 A/E though :)
 
if the T1 cable is detachable, the slappa case would be a good case for it lol

My experience as well.  Revealing audio that I was unaware of in songs that I thought I already knew.

The pics are fine, thanks heaps! At least now we know that the case fits the t1. And i agree that the design can be improved with a detachable cable.

I had a similar experience with my TH 900's, but that wasn't until 6 weeks of use so I guess 100 hours of burn in or so. What is your take on their overall sound signature? I was torn between the T1's and HD800's but went for these instead. I will listen to that Michael Jackson track tomorrow when I get the T1's to see if I have the same experience
