jetsetter,
Sorry, but you are just out in left field. Prospective buyers need to be constantly aware of the issues for products like the 950.
Myself, I'm just not willing to fork over $899 for a product that has been shown in numerous tests -- ears and measurements --(magazine print and soundhound test results) to have a really lousy noise floor (i.e.hiss).
I'd like to thank people like Will and SH, for their contributions.
I'm sure many other people feel the same way I do.
I want the truth, and yes, I can handle the truth.
