The Deals Thread (CLOSED! See the last post for the link to the new thread) - Page 624  

of course the prices are set by Schiit the manufacture since that is the only way to get new Schiit products is directly from the manufacture and therefore their prices are not fixed.

 

There are other retailers aside from schiit directly.

 

Not yet, still to new and to hyped to have a sale. They are flying off the shelves right now so doubt we'll see a sale on them anytime soon. I'd keep and eye on eBay and wait for someone to list a slightly used pair like this here.

Or Amazon who looks like they have had a few returns that are in like new condition and missing nothing.

Schiit probably has a strict MAP, which it enforces.  Their dealers seem to be limited in number.  That makes enforcement easier and compliance stronger.

You are completely correct. I was not aware that Schiit even had a dealer network since I do not own any Schiit products. I was just tired about all the negative  comments against American workers.

 

... uhh there weren't any negative comments about American workers in this thread

They do post prices on their website, how does one get new Schiit products at less then listed price?

This is about the best deal going on the M-100s right now. A friend got one of these returns from the Warehouse Deals and they were still sealed. May want to snag one of those. You still have the 30 day return through Amazon.

New Sennheiser Momentum - 218,44 € plus shipping ($ 294 - £ 186) sold and dispatched by Amazon.es.

Thanks for your typing. The used one's price is so closed to the new one... If I want to buy a new one, maybe the online retailer which don't charge tax is the best one?

I usually default to Amazon. Returns are so much easier. I would look to eBay only if the price was too good to ignore.

Alright, just wanted to remind everyone: the KOSS Tony Bennett Signatures are still available at Tuesday Morning for $49.99. Finally picked up a pair after giving up a couple of my headphones. These retail for $149.99, and can be found on amazon for around $75, but at $50, these are very good sounding, they feel very comfortable and they are very portable. Plus, they come with a carrying case, and a free download of Tony Bennetts album, Duets II. Well worth $50, IMO.

If anyone has a TJ Maxx or Marshall's by them, they might have Incase headphones on super-clearance for $10. I got a pair of Reflexes for my sister. They're not great by any means, but they actually sound pretty nice for $10. Actually, kind of fantastic for $10. They're better than a lot of the fashion headphones I've tried. They have a bit of an midrange problem, but amping with a somewhat bright amp, like the O2 them seriously helps them (Actually, these pair better with my O2 better than any of my other headphones). I feel like that if I got these with an amp, I wouldn't be in this silly adventure because they sounds pretty relaxing. I haven't tried it with anything other than gentle folk music though. They probably won't be great for anything that requires a fast headphone.

 

This statement is a nitpick but I feel like I have to point it out. The O2 was designed from the ground up to be a neutral amp, and based on the testimonials of not only myself but of many respected Head-Fiers, I'd say that it succeeds admirably in this regard. I don't know if you like the O2 or not, but calling it bright is kind of doing it a disservice.

Just my $0.02.

I don't have an answer to your question, but reading and viewing Tyll's review convinced me not to buy them, but I was (and still am) quite tempted.  If you haven't read/seen it yourself, I imagine you'll appreciate it.
