I've been eyeing these for a long time, but I'm still weary for when that mounting screw will break (which is inherent for all of the Fostex/Denon headphones that use the same headband/swivel ear cup design):

Yeah, I bought the TH-X00 used and they sound amazing, but my pin broke after a few months. I bought replacement parts but it's so hard to get everything tightened back the way it was. The screw worked itself back out over a few weeks and it's a real pain to take it all apart to retighten that screw.

I've heard the E-MUs have even better sound, but I'm never going to buy another headphone with the same headband design.
