    Yeah, I don't need it either, but great price. However, it is a bit of an interesting decision between the 400i and 400s. To me, the 400s is definitely the better value at respective retail prices. But I think with them both at $299 it is not clear to me that the 400i is definitively better. I spent some time listening to both at my local dealer this weekend going back and forth at their headphone bar. Had to try to volume match on the fly. But I couldn't necessarily say the 400i is definitively better, just different a la preferences for HD 650 v HD 600. But if you want more bass extension go for the 400i.

    Just for the record, so we know we both are talking about the same thing. What exactly am I talking about?

    If it's what I think it is I definitely need to give them another listen. That is all I will say. The good news is they are not that expensive and while everyone lines up their purchases this could easily fall in line with them.

    Phat Bass Thread for those who think the HD650 doesn't produce enough bass.

    I don't think anybody signed an NDA when they listened to the prototype, so no reason to be all secretive. It's a new collaborative headphones by our favourite group buy site. Now make guess regarding who they are collaborating with :p
