Everything I've got was bought online and purchased blind apart from impressions I've read from here.
I thought he meant ES10s not ESW10JPNs.

I tested the ES10 in a store today... it's really like the ES7's big brother, but I'd have to pay attention to the music to notice the differences (maybe burn-in would change that? My ES7s have more than 500 hours, and after 100 hours I notice a big improvement in the sound).
But anyway, considering a portable rig (I'll be doing other things while listening to music), and the fact that I already have the ES7, I think I'll pass the ES10 (until something happens to my ES7). And now I'm decided to get the Ultrasone Pro 900
Thanks for all the replies, I appreciate it.
hey flavouz,
wondering how you're getting along with ur ultrasone's??
im considering buying my first pair of portable headphones, and was looking into the ES7's and ES10's.....big price gap!!!, is it worth it in your opinion seeing as u were in a similar position once .
peacee!!
I really like the Pro 900. I listen mainly to drum and bass and other bass-heavy genres, and the Pro 900 is perfect for that. It's also quite clear and the vocals are a bit laidback, but it sounds natural to my ears.
I think they're worth the price tag but they're not really portable (they are quite big... and some people would say they are *too* big to use on the go). And they need an amp to sound great.
But if you don't care about the size, and if you listen to electronic music (the genre that best fits the sound signature of the Pro 900 IMO), I'd say go for it. One of the things I thought when I first started listening to the Pro 900 was "I should have bought these a long time ago"
