I particularly liked the effective attenuation or external noise and the crisp mid and high frequency reproduction. At high volumes, trebble is definitely getting close to ear drilling but just short of too hot. At the time of writing, these headphones had only done a few hours of hard work so they really haven't been worked in yet. I've probably gotten overly used to more bass that the original artist had intended so short of some EQ tweaks, left my a tiny bit wanting. Having said that, the bass extension is still magnificent and should be quite good when fully worked in. They look good, feel very comfortable without making you feel clammed in and I could feel quite comfortable wearing them for hours on end. I'm happy with my purchase and feel I've made the right choice for the criteria I required; good sound isolation, fantastic SPL (my cowon s9 could just about blow my eardrum in), reasonable accuraccy and comfort. And finally, a great review, all the points covered concisely.

Where is the best place to buy one of these headphones? I looked at BestBuy.com, but they don't have them.
