JBLoudG20 Posted August 1, 2008 Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 Has anybody seen these? I kinda doubt it, but figured I'd ask. Something about them has been calling me for a while, now. They are 'studio' phones according to AT.

JBLoudG20 Posted August 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 So they definitely have a 'studio' sound to them. More linear than the other AT's I've had in the past. No real glaring faults, as yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 That actually sounds appealing. How much were they? Where'd you get 'em from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aardvark baguette Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 Looks like it would get kinda warm. How well do they seal out noise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBLoudG20 Posted August 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 Peter, I grabbed them off ebay from a local seller. They are out of them now, but I paid $105 shipped. I'll keep an eye out for you. RoadDogOnline has them for a decent price, too. They have a listing on ebay, and their own site. I also almost purchased them from The Twiser Group's website. I think they would have come in at about $115 shipped or so. Chris, They have decent isolation for a headphone. Better than my old VTG (I miss it so much, and coincidently if anyone has one, or knows of someone, please forward it along) but not as good as any IEM I ave tried. The bass has already opened up, but ths may partly be due to unfamiliar music. I'll put some more familiar stuff on next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 No, that's alright, that was "for future reference". I haven't even picked up a pair of ATH-A500, yet... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
