Sorry if a bit offtopic, but a bump for you and I am interested in the SSD's, but where do you check in Intel toolbox for the estimated remaining life? I would like to check on of mine.
Remember that CRT's are usually measured roughly from Bezel to Bezel while LCDs are screen area only, so the FW900 is probably closest to a 22" LCD. I can take a picture next to my 24" LCD to make sure later.
So it comes out at higher brightness? Sorry if it sounds like I'm starting basic but I don't know what you have done already. Did you try setting the color to sRGB before or after the restoration? Mine have seemed to get pretty close to D65 with that, most will need to adjust to how dark it is...
Amp is not necessary. My Droid can power these very well. I use an Astro Mixamp with these and replacement cable with mic, and the mic works:

Pretty sweet setup, can use it on 360, PC, and PS3
Amazing headphones. Got two last time. I have a couple Beyerdynamics, Sennheiser, Koss, and Grado headphones so not I'm just comparing them to 12 dollar earbuds.
1 day less than 2 years ago Amazon had the 770's for 100 dollars. Even though I already had the Guitar Center 770's (80ohm black) I couldn't pass them up. Same thing when they had the TripleFi's for a hundred (ended up with two pairs of those).
