Nah dude not flimsy at all.. they were packed into a carryon gear bag that was overpacked, and when it tipped over on the tube all of the weight went right onto one cup and popped some screws.

Definitely not a fault of the build quality, but more my own :)

well i am sat here listening to the 880's for the very first time and i'm pretty damn godsmaked. i can't believe i've been mixing off the hd25's for my whole life - my god i've been missing out BIG TIME!!! these phones are lovely, they don't rest on your ears like the 25's and the sound is, well, lovely. they're definitely not flimsy and i really like the way you can hear a conversation with them on, this will be very very helpful to me and chrissi together in the studio.

thanks to all concerned! i will update you as the months go on!
