    Good show, glad to hear you have got them ordered. Once you have the goods in your possession, there is naff all they can do. I suspect that they have dropped a 2 from the front of the price, so when someone does realise the mistake, someone else's butt is likely to be kicked - --- all good for you though, as you have really got yourself a bargain there!!!

    When you first listen to them, they will sound really bass heavy - that improves with time. Don't underdrive them, as they will sound terrible - the sound is quite clinical at first, but again your ears will rapidly adjust, and you will then hear stuff in recordings that you have not heard before - truly revealing set of cans, with an incredible soundstage. If you can, try and let them run at a reasonable volume level for a couple of days whilst you are at work (radio will be fine), which will help them run in a bit.

    I hope you are as happy with them as I am with mine.

    Hi FC,

    Not actually ordered them .. yet ...

    Sennheizers site have them at 169.99 , so looks like they have dropped off the hundred.


    Really wanted to hear some cans before buying as I did with my originals as found the reviews and my take so different.

    Grrrr... not sure !!

      I know what you mean - if you were closer, I would gladly run my cans round to yours to try before you buy. £70 for these puppies is an absolute bargain - - don't forget Argos have a 14 day, no nonsense exchange, so if you are not happy with them, take them back. I'll give you three, maybe four days with them, and you will not be parted.....
