Just ordered HD555's from OcUK and was wondering if anybody had these and could tell me what they like.
 
If they have the same two pronged connector expect a couple of years use before contact is intermittent . :( naff design...good in theory as you can easily replace damaged cord, but it's a failure point.
 
I'd give them a 4 out of 5, the sound is excellent, but once you get the bass way up they start to vibrate quite noticeably.

They are super comfortable though and would highly recommend.

My Shure E2c's are better, but not good for extended listening

You may want to note 555's are open type so noise will leak out - may not be an issue, but you have the benefit (or drawback) of being able to hear stuff going on around you.

(A bomb could go off with my E2c's & i'd be oblivious)
 
Sounds good, want them for gaming which I do too much of so they need to be comfortable over long periods of time, as for the bass thing, I won't be listening to music much through them and been able to hear things around me aswell will be good for lanning.
