SuperLux HD 668B availability in the U.S.? Alternatives to this headphone?

Thread Starter 

I had my eyes set on the SuperLux HD 668B after reading a few threads that claim this is superior to the AD700 but now I am having trouble finding one to purchase in the U.S. I don't want to purchase one from overseas or ebay so what comparable headphones are the same price range do you guys recommend?

 

I liked the fact that the HD 668B is semi-closed. I prefer closed more than open but I don't want to spend too much (preferably less than $100 but with the most bang for the buck). It's for my laptop gives off an annoying static noise from the headphone jack.

 

Appreciate the help.

You may also want to consider purchasing some kind of tiny, cheap USB DAC. That should eliminate the static noise coming from the jack --  a new pair of headphones won't eliminate the hissing.

If you must not use ebay, then you can grab a pair at HeadRoom. Just be wary of a wait list and a waiting period.

As for an equivalent, supposedly the Samson SR850 is similar.

The US distributor/dealer is Audiohipster dot com. Top notch service, just email him.
