Good to be weary but not an issue unless you really throw them around, drop them, or carry them in a backpack naked. I have had 4 900's and a X00, and none had any issues. I keep them on a ZMF headphone stand, and listen to them at home... Normal in house use, no issues.

Yeah, I used to have a pair of TH-X00 Mahogany's, and they were fine for the time I owned them. I sold them years ago though, so I often wonder if the current owner is still enjoying them till this day, or not.

With that said, my biggest issue with the TH-X00 at the time may have been due to the loose clamp. At least, in retrospect, this is what I suspect may have been the reason why I never got "dat bass" despite pad rolling and using attenuation rings.

I'm still mulling over it, but the novelty and appeal are not as strong for me like it was back when they first released. :/
