Feather Posted November 16, 2009 Report Share Posted November 16, 2009 I think they are the same.."a" is a lil more expensive coz you cannot get it on ebay ^ ^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screaming oranges Posted November 22, 2009 Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 As has been established, there are different sounding W9's depending on batch. Is there also a difference in W10's, or are they all the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrecked_porsche Posted November 22, 2009 Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 You're asking about the ESW10jpn and not the W10vtg right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusty Chalk Posted November 22, 2009 Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 It is my understanding that they don't have different "runs" like the ESW9's have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrecked_porsche Posted November 23, 2009 Report Share Posted November 23, 2009 Yup, that is my understanding too, no different "runs"; the one ESW10jpn that I owned in the past was sweeeeeeet. Reminded me of the W11jpn a little. If we were talking about the W10vtg... eh... now that has some slight variation SQ wise. Be careful if you're planning to buy an ESW10jpn though, the fucking fakes have started to show up. I saw a thread on HF the other day saying that the pirates have started selling fake ESW10jpn and they were quite good copies too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charliex Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 At my last mini-meet, we were able to A-B both the ESW9 and ESW10JPN side by side out of the two headphone jacks from a Total Bithead . . . abd the ESW10JPN won hands down - much fuller, deeper bass and motre impact.

Really? A $500 headphone sounds better than a $250 headphone from the same series and same vendor? Had anyone suggested anything else? Can you post the thread? Let me google that for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Monkey Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 I like most HeadRoom products. Except for the Bithead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
