On a whim I recently bought a pair of Koss ESP/950 electrostatic headphones and I'm pleasantly surprised at their excellent performance and relatively low price. They sell for less than $700 online and they sound like a thousand dollars or more to me. I'm sure the headphones you're considering are just as good if not better, but the price attracted me to Koss and I'm not disappointed in the least. They are definitely better sounding than my old Grado HP-1 and RS-2 headphones.
Best regards,
