Default If you had to replace HD 580 headphones...

Unfortunately, our roving bionic security facility (an edgy Jindo bitch
named Sidney) was kenneled elsewhere. Thief or thieves broke in, removing
about $3,500 worth of bicycles, computer LCD displays and printer,
headphones, and a nice GPS. Yes, there's insurance.

There were a few jokes on the thieves. Among the headphones they took were a
well-abused pair of ATs that were *held together with polyurethane glue, hot
melt glue, and solder.

Unfortunately, the thieves also took my prized HD-580s, unwashed ear pads
and all. So, they have a little bit of me to remember me by! ;-)

That leads to this question: What is *your* nomination for replacements for
my HD-580s?

HD 580s seem to have disappeared from the new equipment marketplace. :-(

Are HD 595's *the answer?


If you can't find the reissue 414's, the 595 is a good step up ;-)

Enjoy, CS
