404LE vs ESP950 - which is better?

Recommended Posts

I've been registerd there for a while, but have not purchased anything yet. I get that it's like eBay, but I don't actually understand many of the product descriptions or the GUI in general. I assume that once I "get it" I will look back on this post and be embarrassed, but for now, I don't "get it." What makes it even more bizzare is that it has the google translate bar on top, but it doesn't seem to be very useful at all.

I suppose it would help to know how much better the 717 is versus the KGSS. Since the KGSS comes with a pretty decent warranty, I lean that way all other things being equal. Is this a rookie mistake?

Now I'm seeing over at the other thread that the 950 may be 300V bias, and have elevated squealing issues out of the KGSS: http://www.head-case.org/forums/headphones/3823-koss-esp-950-electrostat-thread-21.html#post328741

Still, the point of this is to build my system around the Omegas of my future, and not the 950. I'm going to shop around for a used KGSS, and if I can find nothing, just buy new.

Thanks for the comments.
