@LongBigBronzeElephantFish: I'm aware of the cabling recall issue, but last time before getting my AD1000PRM already done a search online, according to most ppl who had those affected models they say it's just a safety issue for the internal core cables, won't affect SQ since they say changed liao nv detect any drastic changes also. Since my one is fully-burnt in liao, don't think I will be sending it in to service center to get it replaced. I think depending on how it goes, I might even get it re-cabled to higher quality stuffs in future, since I really love the vocal rendition performance of my AD1000PRM's.
@Rickysio: I can confirm chop + guranteed tell u he won't be hokays with the W5000 one, even before he gets to hear it. He alrdy shared before in some other discussion threads ard here that his usual listening tastes quite buay gam with ATH one.
It's prolly for the same reasons like what applies for me and Rubick, somehow my ears cannot tolerate Sennheiser's SQ signature in terms for their headphones, there's just something too thick and dense-sounding that I don't like at all. Although most of their stuffs like HD600/HD650 are quite satki in terms of dynamics/soundstaging properties, there seems to be a lack of air/sparkle/transparency especially in the upper treble response, at least when I compare those well-known models to Audio-technica's Art and Air Dynamic series.
Haven't tried their HD800 before though, but heard that one is quite bright-sounding and airy, might have a chance that it will suit my taste. But looking for an expensive amp setup just to pair properly with the HD800 is kinda like....
