I own these headphones and love them! I bought mine for significantly more and I still think they were worth it. -- Keep in mind the ear pads are shallow and tend to be uncomfortable after only 20-30 minute of listening, but I solved that by switching them out for sheepskin brainwaivez ear pads and the result was even better; Wider sound stage, greater imaging and comfort for days. Also, while they don't technically need a ton of power to be driven, they sound much better through an amp.
