I've looked into the depths of the archives for information on the ATH-w100.
So many different viewpoints about one phone.
The thing that bothers me the most about them is the are compared way too much against the w1000's when the w1000's are quite abit more expensive as far as I've seen used anyway, which I see as the boulevard price (used street price, my little invention). I've read way to many pages comparing them to the W1000. While I do believe this is a good thing to do because many people face the w100 or w1000 question but, I would really like to also know how good they are compared to other phones in their price range (boulevarde price). price range HD600 SR325 etc...
Anyway enough of my rant
In the end I just want to know a little more about the ATH-W100
I listen to: Pearl Jam, Led Zep, The Who, Velvet Underground, Massive Attack, Portishead, Sigur ros, Jack Johnson, Ben lee, and some jazz along with many other things.
What has been your experience with them?
I've owned or own
HD590
HP910
ER4S
V6
SR80
KSC35
to name a few
I own a Airhead and soon a CMOY with an upgrade to a Meta probably on the horizon in 3 months or so if needed.
Sources:
Sony Reciever (don't remember the model)
Sony MZ-n707 MD player
Turtle Beach Soundcard
This will most likely be my final upgrade of a headphone, at least until after I upgrade my reciever source and AMP collection.
I'm very most likely picking one up so I just want to know what to expect.
Thanks Bruce
