Yeah, it's the W1000X, can't remember what the difference is though since it was a while ago. To be honest I've yet to hear an Audio Technica which didn't sound unacceptably wrong in some way, and that's at least a half dozen of them by now. Looks great, fits nice & comfortably, but they sound wrong.Ypoknons wrote:aerius, isn't that pic one of the W1000X, not the W1000? The wood tint is slightly different and W1000X is glossier. The W1000X was on my buylist until quite recently, I was a bit disappointed when I heard them at the Hong Kong high-end audio-visual show, it was just a bit too muddy, but that might just be the mystery equipment they were demo-ing it off or the songs.

Lusankya: Deal!
Say, do you want it to be a threesome with your wife? Or a foursome with your wife and sister-in-law? I'm up for either.

I'm quite partial to the look of my Urbanears Plattans, though the somewhat small cup size can pinch my ear a little after exceptionally long use.

Plus, they have a nifty 'zounds plug', a headphone jack on the headphones so you can share music without splitters or doing the 'one ear' trick

Re: The Coolest Looking Headphones
Those are actually pretty slick, though admittedly my opinion shifts from 'slick' to 'bland' every five seconds.
