I received the 58X phones yesterday. Not sure what I expected. Not a normal hphone user. But seems as I'm listening to music in my head and muffled. So far not impressed with sound. They sound good. Just maybe my expectations, thought would sound more like "speakers in a room" . Physical quality looks good. Not uncomfortable, even with headband could use more padding. Starts to annoy a little after couple hours.
Started breaking-in with fm radio in non listening time. Will see/hear if improves enough with time.
Massdrop shipped quickly Fed Ex and USPS did the local delivery to Illinois. They were in stock and shipped in two days. No complaints, went smoothly.
Edit: I think they have limbered up a lot after maybe 40 hours breakin. Need to give them time. The sound has much changed and/or I'm adapting to them.. I prefer over my AKG 280 hands down. I was too quick to judge them. They need use to open up, IMO.
