Nah, try searching for the W5000 instead 

kewl! good for u dude . bucking the current "local" opinion isnt easy but i believe u've made a very good choice. IMO AT's build quality and comfort is top notch and there are 2many positive opinions out there to make it bad cans. do update us with your personal impressions when u get it. be mindful of the break-in that maybe required b4 the sounds blooms. congrats on a fine purchase

break in varies.... some can be 100 hours some can be up to 300 hours (like the k701)

and congrats on ur purchase of the A900..... im interested to find out ur opinions on them too

yup madman is correct. 100-300hrs seems to be the general accepted break-in rule. what i usually do is to plug it in to some tunes (or wateva) and leave it on at a reasonable sound level (reg listening volume or slightly higher but NEVER maxed out!) 24/7 for atleast a week. mite be a good idea to jot down an initial pre break-in sound impression to have a comparo latter on.

i personally havnt heard the A900s b4 but i believe it'l put a ear to ear smile on your face esp. when u compare with your 8yr old aiwa. hehe. hope to hear your impressions soon.

how much did it cost you? I hope you enjoy it.  I have little affection with the A900ltd, if not loath , for how it sounded given that kind of price.  Did your daughters ask you why are there crop circles on your head (hair) after using the headphone for awhile?

when I said little affection...I didn't really mean I like it at all, in fact, I meant that I didnt quite like them.  The A900ltd is supposedly an improvement over the A900.  My friend has a pair of A900ltd and I had tried it many times in many different occassions.  The phone is just awfully horrible in the vocals, total muffleness and the infamous AT mid range honkiness is surprisngly prominent.  The phone is also upfront and pretty much have the same kind of treble found in the W series.  The bass on the A900ltd was ok, but afaik, the A900 is quite bass shy.  I didn't mean to burst your bubble though.  Although I havent heard of the senn 595, if it is anything like the 555 as most ppl claimed, it would be a signicant improvement over the A900. 595 cost USD160 + shipping over here....should be more or less the same price when it gets to malaysia.  btw, the hd580 can also be had for around USD160+/- shipped to malaysia.  Anyway, hope you like it, this is definitely not my cup of tea...and I have a hard time trying to figure out why would anybody like them

EDIT: btw, I dont have the rights to justify your purchase

New owner of Audio-Technica ATH Pro700.. Really proud w/ the h/phone..

Got Philips SHP895 too.. but, telling you all the thruth... the ATH Pro700 sound is farrr better then my SHP895.. really worth to own it..

export tax, local sales tax all comes into consideration dude. But then, Proton is nothing more than a company that knows nothing except making money.

p/s: you might get 25% cheaper AT cans from Japan, but your shipping cost might cost more than the 25% you saved.

Azfaz... how much extra cost for shipping cost that we need to add if buying those headphone from them????

That sound great!! The price cheaper about RM100 from retail price in Malaysia,,,, heheee
