Default HD580's with HD600 Grills on the way!

I ordered a pair of HD580's w/600 grills from Head-Fi and they should be here soon. I can't wait. For now, I will pair this with a PA2V2 until I can get a Little Dot II.

One of my favorite headphones of all time. I do think that the HD600 sounds just a bit better, but the 580's price can't be beat.

Awesome, meets are fantastic. If you do go, try and get some pics and impressions and post them here in a separate thread. I try and archive all meet impression threads if possible.

Yes, I did receive the pm, and yes I will sticky it for ya. Didn't realize it had not been already.
