Maybe LFF can clarify.
That's a sexy photo Valentin. I'm glad I was eventually able to get one. A 'premium' model that's out for delivery right now! Serial#001 apparently, LFF hope you put some extra love into that one. =]
Okay, one word: dope. For anyone on the fence, these are a screaming bargain. I'm impressed how detail retrieval increases with just a flat response. No personality whatsoever, no distinguishing characteristics, and kind of boring in that regard if you are more into gear than music.

Which headphones are you referring to?Also @Hans: Did you ever get your MDs back to do some comparisons with the paradox?

Which headphones are you referring to?Also @Hans: Did you ever get your MDs back to do some comparisons with the paradox?Yes, I have just been too lazy to write something up. I very, very slightly prefer the Paradox, but I couldn't justify the difference in the price in the end. Main difference is that the Paradox is slightly more elevated than the MD around 80-300Hz, but the MD has a slight dip in the 40-80Hz range. I've always thought the Paradox had a slight emphasis in that area I mentioned, and I've had it confirmed for me through an alternative source. Either way, I'd ultimately prefer something in-between, but both are easily "fixed" with a tiny bit of EQ. They're much more similar than not. I'll probably sell both down the road and just mod my own again. To be honest, I find neither "magical" from a sound or price perspective. Both seem to get too much hype either way. I find it a bit sad that I have to pay $300+ to get decent, neutral sound in the end. More of a reflection of the industry/market than anything else, though. Rambling now...
