Hi
Thanks for letting me know - I would love to own a pair of the Audeze (best looking headphone on the market IMO) but they are just too much for me to justify spending that on them (although thats a very fair price you offer for phones + amp).
I'm only really looking at around $500 second hand as my top end price so limited in what I can go for.
I saw the Fostex the other day and will have to give them a listen - another beautiful looking (and sounding by all accounts) set of headphones.
Thanks again.
What music do you listen to mostly?
The X00 are simply amazing for rock. I mean it's just impossible to say enough good about them (imo). They aren't bassheads like my brothers VModa Crossfade but def more bassy than the neutral headphones.
For Jazz and easy listening I actually wish I'd kept the HD 600 headphones as they didn't hurt my head. They aren't quite as good as the LCD-3's but they are incredible for Jazz and female vocals.
Best of luck ... I love good headphones :*)
