Blues 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2003 It looks very promising, with only 500 units made world-wide. Instead of the usual wood finish, they've used leather to cover the wood inside. To me it looks very , very classy! Or can it be something to do with the sound? let's see... Estimated price should be around or even more when the W2002 was released. Anyone going for this?

lekguan 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2003 re is not a good place to keep leather stuffs. Perhaps can keep in a camera dry box with some silica gel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sipher 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2003 if u keep in a electronic dry box then there's no need for silica gel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
N3w_Typ3 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2003 well .... if just for the cans and spend so much on the acess like dry box then it not worth it ... but from what i know ... to take care of leather ... cannot use drying item .... i think it will cos it to crack ... so have to purchase a cream ( forgot what izzit ) and clean it every week or month ... to keep it shine and mint condition cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tropicalrips 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2003 won't that cream get on your ears too when u use the cans? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rameish 0 Report post Posted October 21, 2003 (edited) Of course you can have leather in Singapore. Grado RS-1, RS-2, SR-325, HP-1 all have leather headbands. And some of the other cans like the ATH W2002 have lamb-ass covered pads as well. It's does look good doesn't it. It would be perfect it it wasn't for the golden bits.

N@Z 0 Report post Posted October 21, 2003 As long as you store them in a cool dry place it won't be a major problem. It looks romantically antique. Like those old leather leather suitcases. I'm a big fan of triple stitching work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
