Cheap AKG K271 MKII, headed for obsolescence?

Has anyone noticed the price of AKG K271 MKII on Amazon?

 

http://www.amazon.com/AKG-K271MKII-Closed-Circumaural-Headphones/dp/B0016MOC28/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1327294842&sr=8-1.

 

There are a lot of sellers who are selling the K271 MKII around $130. Does this mean that AKG has a replacement coming down the pipe soon?

They just came out with the K550 but I don't know if that's a direct replacement, but it's their new top of the line sealed phone.

Looks like a good value. Not sure how they sound compared to 240 mkII.
