Have they be redesigned/fix or will they, over time, suffer the same problem like my previous pair of 4XX - screws holding caps loosen over time and fall off. I needed to screw them back together every day. Yokes were actually bigger then caps and I think that there was a bit too much tension from metal springiness involved. After some time they wouldn't even last whole day of normal use and one day I was so pissed and tired of rebuilding them over and over and over again that I throw them into garbage bin. IMHO those are simple an example of bad engineering, or perhaps case of using parts that weren't actually designed to work together in the first place.

Seems to me you wasted a decent set of headphones. I would have just used Loctite.

PhillipNunyaI used loctite and it didn't really stick the same way. Stretched the outer part of the headband and very shortly ripped off again

Just saw this post now that these are back in stock. Mine did exactly this! I have them in the box jus...split apart.
This too is the only reason I would buy another 4XX.
It's ridiculous how tiny those screws are its clear the thread is getting shaved off with this amount of tension that comes from Taking Off and On the headphones.

I can only get one side to work out of the box. Too late to return I think…anybody else have this?

bigdaddyartinthis has been my experience even after six months of heavy use. one side was slightly looser than the other right out of the box, but it hasn't progressed and they're solid.

They can play whatever sound signal you send in. So if your PC will send sound altered by Atmos for headphones software then you will get what you send - a pseudo virtual sound that is way worse in all aspects then pure stereo sound.

Most headphone speakers are 50mm in size, and the largest are the HyperX with 100mm speakers. How large are the speakers in these headphones ?

You're talking about dynamic driver size. These are planar and assuming they're like the 400/xx, 60mm. That said, it really doesn't mean anything.

May be a stupid question but all my headphones are labeled left and right yet these aren't. I can tell by the way the pads are angled which is which but I was wondering if others here are the same.

Is this a 400se? I just got one and like it but if these sound a little warmer I might return them and get these. I'd save about 50 bucks if you include the cable I had to buy for those plus the $10 credit I still have with drop.

They are not the same as any existing set (for real this time).
EDIT: To clarify they are the HE-400SE drivers without "stealth magnets". Technically different sound but very similar.
