oh dear, thats not not good. if it helps any, i've done 3,000km's in my bmw in the past 18months and its broken down, then been fixed a…

Why... why do they build the headband out of plastic. My clears also have a broken headband. I still use and love them but I too won't be…

You obviously understood what I meant, 'Dynamic drivers' you even state it in your comment. your argument is simply to miss understand what…

I would love to try them back to back. there was a good 6 months between when I tried the '800' and then the '800s' I've never wanted to…

They are.... weird. You NEED to try them before you buy. @bruc3 makes an amazing point 'don't buy headphones at this price blindly.' i know…

Good price, but TRY THEM before you buy. They are unlike any other headphone. the sound is a personal preference... to say the least (its…

Agreed, amazons return policy is awesome. was really easy to fill out the form and paid nothing to post my defective pair back to them the…

I own Arya's, and focal clears. Honestly you couldn't go wrong with either. they will both suit your music taste. I love my focals, and…

I find it really interesting how subjective IEM's and music tuning can be. maybe it was just the ie600's or me on the day. holy shit they…

Sound is subjective in a lot of ways, but saying the 600's > 900's is a bold statement. I would like to hear more of why you found it that…

just buy a used mk 7.5. better build quality, and better entertainment. also they can be had for well under half that.

personally i went with t30's but honestly you couldn't go wrong with either. the t30's are really well built and they performed…

Couldn't agree more mate. I wish i could have listened to the ie900's for a lot longer. I would have picked up on those faults. Certainly…

@HPdeskjet its very interesting how we have very different takes. I wonder if you listened to the same products almost. I'm not a big…

huge difference in sound quality between the two. ie900 at sub 1k is a huge steal ie600 at $600 is very meh.

IE 900's are seriously good. In a recent trip to Tokyo I was lucky enough to try these out as well as many other 'very' expensive IEM's.…

the bathys are 350g's and the sony's are reportedly 250. the Ultra's appear to be a little bigger than the bose 700's and qc45's. it's not…

depends on what your looking for. Bose pack up into a smaller case, are smaller on the head and will have better sound cancelling. Bose…

hell yeah mate. I just got my focal bathys yesterday. super happy with them as well :D

I got to try these out and others at a massive audiophile superstore in tokyo japan. I really wanted to love these, after listening to the…

I reckon you'll be over the moon. I wish I bought my clears sooner. You also shouldn't need to purchase a new dac/amp. I first used the…

troll on

What are you talking about? The HD800s are renowned for their sound stage. Likely having the largest sound stage of any headphone ever…

Yeah its super strange. I've personally listened to these headphones and reckon they are a hard sell at half this price

I think its a personal preference. I can fully understand why someone would be completely turned off by a set of headphones by it.…

you couldn't get more contrasting sound stage. The sound from the HD800 is all around you, even a bit behind. For the focals the sound is…

I strongly recommend people try a set of HD800's (S or non) before pulling the trigger. They are unlike any other set of headphone I've…

Kinda different products. The Bathy's are aimed primarily on sound quality. I love the QC35's because they are small, light and ANC is…

i didn't know the planar drivers are hard to match. I have a set of hifiman arya's that died within 2 weeks of me owning them, I'm 6months…

1. there could be some debate if its 'new.' yes it is for this individual item a discount on msrp. 2. 600/650/6xx, ~$300 is in this market…
