I remember my first headphone, a Lenco, brought over from the US, around 1970. It was white plastic, hard pleather cushions ("skai" was the term here of the plasticky leather replacement material), quite a "high end" headphone I think at the time. Cushions were the size of Beyerdynamic DT880/990 cushions. I do remember the sound was "so so". Comfort was not there at all! Also had the Sony Walkman and the small foam over the ear headphones 10 years later. None of these were comparable to a cheap Koss of today!

Looks like new Case holder. New Electrostatic elements. No foam inside speakers. Everything else looks like present SR-507.

Maybe remove the box and install these:

So your larger post count makes your opinion more worth than mine? That is how you think? I gave no shill, just my own experience. And I am not alone making this experience, if you look in other sites.

I have twice replaced batteries in iPods with NewerTech/NuForce batteries, and I will never recommend them. And those prices they ask! You can find Cameron Zino batteries on eBay, same extended capacities for all the iPod models, for half the NuForce prices. And I do recommend Cameron Zino from my experience with them.
