Golden rule is always ask to test before buying. If you are asking about how it sounds, maybe can read up Head-Fi? I searched with the keyword "HD497" and tons of info came up. Even mods for it. Go chk it up and gd luck with you purchase!

Even a tank is destructible so what do you think. What matters is how the cans sound to you and how you take care of it. I am sure one changes ear buds more often than headphones because of cord breakage than cones of headphones being destroyed ala Mission Impossible style.

My advise is not to buy. I used to hold quite a couple of Sennheiser headphone.

 

Please note that all Sennheiser headphone comes with 2 years warranty.

 

It really very costly to replace a cone. Mine ever spoilt twice. First model : HD530 ( one of the best, very old model ) cost me S$60 buck for 1 replacement.

 

My second one HD565 cost me S$80 to replace.

 

I am currently using my HD280Pro which I like it very much. I used it on my H340 MP3 player.

 

Regards
