when I was ordering (thebeginning of december) it was written that the arrival of package would be on 25th to Istanbul, Turkey. It stucked somewhere in Germany. Very slow shipping, even the costs of shipping is low. I expected a bit faster shipping to be honest. Maybe I would order on Amazon as it sends from US to here in a week maybe + 2 days...

gurbuzGot mine today! I am just listening the first song.. Seems everything is good.. Maybe an amplifier would be good with it, any recommendation?? And do you think if there is a need to listen some time if it has burn it time? Because I can not tell that I felt in love with the sound.. Ok, no problem at all but maybe the expectation gets higher when people write and entry level "audiophile" headphones for them.. Anyway, I am enjoying with my 50 usd audiophile headphones! Thanks Massdrop!!

gurbuzLeave them playing a long playlist at night with moderate volume, that would be enough. It is a 55ohm headphones, i think it doesn't need an amp but you can try some on a store to check if you can hear any difference with one.
To be fair, my first pair of good headphones was an audio technica M50x and the first time i did hear them i didn't like them. I just wanted to put on my old $10 sony earbuds with my cellphone EQ lol.
It took me like one month using them like 4-5 hours daily to love them... yeah i know it's a lot of time.
I started to appreciate the details and harmony it gives you, that clarity really puts you there in some parts of the songs.
The clarity a good headphone gives you compared to a cheap one is like a "no bass" feeling at the begining, but after some time you realize the cheap ones's clarity is none, and sounds like if you put a cardboard between your ears and the headphone.
All i can suggest you is to try it with different devices (be sure to set OFF crapy features like WOW effects and virtual surround), and different audio sources (i find myself hating Spotify premium's quality, and now i use Tidal which is FLAC audio).

KukoCLThank you so much for your reply.. I think you clearly identified what I was feeling. Probably the computer which I am using at work has a very ordinaty sound card as I have tried it at home, sound comes better.. Maybe I will have a small aplifier to use at work.
I was so between in M50x, Sony V6 but than I saw this drop and joined. The thing is I like to have the idea of using over ear headphones, really comfortable.
I agree with you about getting used to have the headphones/earphones. I think our ears are getting used to the headphones we always listen.. Because I feel that I am enjoying day by day.
About no bass effect, I agree with you. My colleagues come and want to try, I can see on their face that they are mostly not satisfied because they got used to have bass from their headphones but some friends who are more into quality equipment, they are happy with the result of m220.
Thanks for the advices, I will try it with different sources as much as I can.. and thanks to advice tidal, I havent heard before but I will try for sure.. (I use spotify free, for now its not bad I should say)
By the way, have you tried m220? can you compare with M50x please?
regards

gurbuzNo i never used the m220 so i can't compare.
Please have in mind that amplifiers are not made to change sound signature. Some of them actually changes it just "a bit" and they are made to give more power to unpowered headphones to achieve it's natural sound or simply raise the volume.
In your case you have a 55ohm headphones that should be driven easily even from smartphones, so i think it's very probably the computer where you work will not sound better with an amp, and you will get only a volume bump.

KukoCLYh, Maybe I missunderstood your comment... You must have AMP for m220. With smarthone you don't have any chance to drive m220s.
