here is my short review..

Thank you for your impressions. Any chance of you being interested in trying the mods mentioned in the following thread?

JVC HA-RX900 modifications, a picture tutorial. (56k, forget about it...)

I had almost pulled the trigger on an M50 awhile back when the price was around $100. At around $150, it has lost it's charm on me and hence I'm looking for alternatives. I just might go for these. The other option I'm mulling over at this time are the Equation RP-21s...

BTW, M-50s are on sale right now at the HiFi Mart store at around 7k after HFV member discount.

thanks ! but i intend to get those from the US. probably i would know by this month's end whether its feasible or not, else i would head over to either hifimart or pristine note.

i read about the mods but the other side is that dynamat makes them heavy and i would wanna grow with them for a few months before i try the mod.
