I wrote that review about a month ago, after spending more time with the Triports and my other headphones, I will say this:

If you listen to too much chillout type music, you'll find that the Triports can be pretty fatiguing because of the power of the bass.

If you find you like the sound of the Triports, you can also try out the VModa Vibes, which I will admit are an even better deal at about half the price of the Triports.

I can understand now how some people will say the Triports are overpriced, but I still say they were worth what I paid and I know some people can get them even cheaper than the $160 I paid.

The Vibes by the way sound quite similar to the Triport OE's, and in some ways are superior. Some people would undoubtedly find them better depending on their taste, and they are a lot cheaper.

The Vibes have a way better soundstage than the Triport OE's (or the Triport AEs and IEs -- I tried them all) and have a more balanced bass than the OE's (but make no mistake they have more bass than the average earphones and it is very yummy bass). I cannot recommend the Vibes enough if you are into chillout/lounge/house/bossa/triphop and the like.

Have to thank Thrax for editing my pain in the ass review, LOL. Awesome job posting it on April Fool's Thrax!
