"Air-driven vibration function" ...well um, yes, that is generally how sound is generated by various sorts of speakers. I really hope that's not what they mean by that.

I'm over here hoping HE1000 comes in a plastic grocery bag, just to keep the trend going.

Just received my HD 6XX as well. Very good sounding

You are amazing!!!!

Environment my arse! They're cutting costs to make more profit. I dont know why they can't be honest about that. 🤷‍♂️

We are talking 2.3db with ANC on, so it makes sense that you can't perceive it. Doesn't mean it's not there, but there is around a .5db increase in the noise floor of the ANC soft mode. Again, probably not audible, but could be why BingaBenga perceived a sound quality difference.

​

Of course, this is just one reviewer's sample. There is probably some unit variance as well.

That would be great.

I just got 660s last week and they came in the nice box.

Bought a pair of 660s a couple months ago and can confirm they do have the fancy box

I want these but can’t afford them atm. going to go back to crying into my 560s

Yes, it is. Perhaps I am overreacting, but I think I might return them and look for a mint condition used pair that comes with the original packaging.

Big whoop... As far as I'm concerned, youtubers are the prime audience when it comes to premium unboxing experiences.

I bought a pair like 2 months ago and they came with it.

Shipping should be fine since they came inside a separate box, but not getting the old packaging is a shame

The Arya Stealth comes in a fuckin shoebox..🤷‍♂️

USPS just dropped my shipment off a couple of minutes ago, and the outer carton is way too small and light for it to the old packaging. I'm kicking myself for not ordering last month, but I was indecisive and couldn't decide what to buy. Boxes and packaging are actually kind of important to me. Ugh!

And think a little greener.

Who cares about the box, isn't the product itself more important??

Seems like it started this batch. Posts from Feb still had the old box. Just got mine and they came in new packaging :(

I keep all my boxes because I like collecting them lol

Yeahhhh. Was quite disappointed about this myself... But man do they sound good, forgot about the lack of fancy box in a few minutes :D
Although, the smaller box does ease shipping costs in the event that I intend to sell them. However its' been 2 solid months and I don't think they're going anywhere.

Looks like a change made for this batch. Posts on Drop still had the box from Feb and my order in March came in same packaging as yours. Box also says made in Ireland, and I believe that the old ones were made in Vietnam? Not sure

$700 for something that doesn’t even come with a nice box?! Wtf it’s even less worth the price now than it already was

whhhaat really? I was surprised it came in such a nice box, I'm having a hard time getting rid of it haha
