Anyone else have scratching on the brushed metal ring near where the headphone jack is?
Aside from that - wow, first song in and they sound eerily similar to the open back Fidelio X2s which used to be $300. I don't think I'd notice the grain in the highs if I wasn't looking for it thanks to reviews at Head-Fi and other places.
EDIT: Ok, two songs in and the bass extension really comes through. Great alternative to mid-fi open cans.
EDITEDIT: Two days in and I think I could probably sell my Senn HD598s, and give away my Philips SHP9500s, and be happy with the Fidelio X2s for my open backs and these CB-1s for my closed back pair. They sound that good. I'd love a $100-150 version of this with better build materials, though!

TamisI did! Apologies, should have mentioned that. Like the previous poster, it came in with Amazon packaging and an Amazon order # / return slip.
