I never tried really high end headphones before those. I was used to my Sennheiser HD555, which I thought were quite good already.</p> <p>I always thought there was not much difference between let&rsquo;s say a $100 headphone and a $500 one, and that only real audiophiles would be able notice the difference: people like Jake who can distinguish artefacts in 320kbps mp3, but not people like me. I was wrong. Those headphones make a real difference, everything seems very clear, and it doesn&rsquo;t feel like listening music through headphones at all, it is much closer to a good hi-fi stereo sound on the ear.</p>
