I received my TR-X00 Purplehearts about a week ago and have been listening since then..... I.....I... just......can't......get....enough....of.....this......sweet......sweet.....amazingly.......rich....sound. If you are on the verge of getting one, do not hesitate or wait any further, you are missing a lot of fun.....fun....sweeeter than honey, and as relaxing as a single malt from the Isle of Islay sound. I am pleasantly shocked and surprised of how intoxicating these headphones sound. And there is the problem that I just don't want to take them off. To put in perspective, they are way more fun than my Grado PS 500, AKG K812 Pro, DT 770. At the end of the day we audiophiles like hearing drug addicts are searching for fun, and FUN is what you get with these headphones. In comparison my Senheiser HD6XX sound like I am locked in a closet and listening to music through the door and walls. Word of advice, just upgrade the pads to ZMF Oval Earpads Lambskin (had them for my previous uninspiring Fostex TR40 Mk3). I don't know how long a burn-in takes for these, but I am already drunk on theirs sound. Can't imagine what happens if the sound gets better than this after a let's say a 100 hours of burn-in.
