[QUOTE="user 997, post: 100033, member: 997"] I guess it will take a substantial number of hours for them to burn in. The Sennheiser HD595 is particularly bad. I think it took a few months (200+ hours) for them to really settle down, but they seem to keep on improving with time. I think that is actually one nice advantage of buying a headphone secondhand, you don't have to go through that burn-in period. My Grado headphones pretty much quickly settled down (+- 50 hours), but they had phases were they were completely unlistenable! I think Grado's have an even bigger peak at 8KHz so I guess they are even worse for your hearing! ;D Grado's do sound very nice and incredibly clear at low volume levels though so that is a big plus in my books.
