Currently got them from Monoprice, it was an open box, for $299, I love the sound from them, yeah they are heavy but I usually listen on my couch (my audio setup is next to me - Modi Multibit and Asgard 3) so weight is not much of an issue.

Did you get M1570’s for $299.00?
Sorry for the late reply, yes I did.

So, do you find it a lot lighter? More comfortable?
Do you have link for the headband for 10USD? In Europe they sell them for 125 EUR that’s a little bit of difference there 
Looks like they don’t sell it anymore.
I just hit the Buy button on some M1570’s.
Hoping for the best. The M570’s were a huge disappointment, but I file that under, “You get what you pay for”.

Is it returnable? Lol
That’s why I love Amazon.
Wow, I am loving these out of the box!
Great mids and some very nice bass. They are kind of a loose fit, even with the “thicker” pads. I gave each side a little bend to tighten them up. They don’t feel especially heavy, but it has only been less than 30 minutes.
I only wear them in my lazy boy so weight and fit won’t be much of an issue.
The iFi Pro iCAN is an amazing partner for these. I have bass boost maxed out (40Hz), 3D maxed out (90/60+) and gain is set to mid. Volume knob is set at about 10:00.
It is killing my test list. 
Right out of the box I am much more impressed than I was with the ATH-WP900’s or the Beyer T5’s (minus the isolation).

I am very happy with mine too, and yes, they have a nice bass, I also use them while I am on the couch so weight is not much of an issue for me.

Put the furry pads on today. First off, what a pain in the ass to change.
The furry’s cost you a lot in bass without doing much to enhance other areas. I will leave them on for today and maybe even tomorrow.
Going forward, the vinyl/pleathers will be the pad of choice.
Put the vinyls/leathers back on and they sound so much fuller and bassier to me.
I am really enjoying these and think they are a keeper. Great bass and mids. No extra treble to speak of.
However, I only seem to enjoy them on the iFi Pro iCAN with X-bass and 3D both wide open. Great with rock and also sounding pretty good with jazz.
The weight is Substantial, but I never notice it on my head, only when I pick them up? I have been tying them together at night to improve the clamp.
I have already been in touch with HAC and the balanced cable is pretty cheap.

I can’t rmb if I read it wrong, but there’s sth weird about M1570? maybe it’s not wired the same way as other cans that use mini XLR. Better to check with HAC first
It is indeed wired the opposite of Audeze, so my Audeze cable will lay dormant while I buy yet another cable. And I will pick up another XLR connector. I like leaving them in all the amps so that I can just hop around depending on the music.

Yeah, a reviewer tried it with both pads and said that the vinyls/leathers are better for the M1570.
Just changed headphones today. Interesting trivia for non-owners:
The HD660’s only weighs 7% of the full weight of the M1570’s. 
Tell me, are they worth the sale price of 399.99 USD? Can anyone compare the He6se V2 to these?
He6se v2 more detailed.
