First post. What a great site!!! I've been lurking for the past month - reading old threads, etc. and learning. I order a HD595 several weeks ago but after a week I found they were on back order. I canceled the order and went ahead with the HD555. Just got them today - I'm very pleased - they sound great & very comfortable. Thanks for all of the great reviews. I relied on this forum for information - the only headphones I could find in our local stores were cheap or Bose Tri-Ports. I did try the TriPorts for one day - took them back the next day. The HD555 are much better than my old KOSS Pro4 from 25 years ago.
I'm listening directly from my CD player/changer headphone output - tried it though my reciever and found that I probably need to upgrade the receiver (background noise/hiss). Listened from the computer (sonic stage program and then through the receiver) but probably need to upgrade to a better soundcard/computer. I probably need to check on a headphone amp. I probably need to go and check on a bank loan now - where will it end!!!
