Bargain? 38.000 USD.

no one is going to pay that, ever

Oh I'm sure there's someone nutty enough to buy them. The near-sacred status enjoyed by the flagships of yesteryear and the recent popularity of "high end headphones" will see to that. Maybe not $38,000 nutty, but somewhere up there.

wow.....

That's probably not even the good version of HEV90.  I have the good version and will sell it for that much if anybody's interested 

 

[Dubstep Girl]

i don't see why anyone would want the HEV90 for that much, aren't alot of the newer amps out supposed to be much better for the HE-90?

My understanding was that it was the entire set, matched, and never used. Hence the extreme price. More of a collectible thing. If it's just the amp then I retract my previous statement and submit that Doug is absolutely right. I don't read whatever language that page is in though, and Google Translate did nothing for it either.

Here is the message from the Swedish seller
 
Hallo.
Thank´s for your interest in Sennheiser Orpheus.
It´s HEV-90 + HE 90.
The price in EURO is 30 000
 
     So it is a new set of HE90 + HEV90.  I will sell my HE90 + Aristaeus + T2 for this price

Wow. Never knew headphones could be so expensive. They're even more expensive than my speakers plus amp :0

Yeah, and some steak knives -  and a block of flats, plus Tasmania.

The Aristaeus beats the HEV90 in every catagory(IMO) except for looks and that overly warm, romantic, gooey sound that we all seem to like from time to time. I would love to own one as an accompaniment to my HE90/Aristaeus rig but not at these prices, especially knowing I have an amplifier that owns it in every regard. Gary

What differentiates the 'good' version from the 'not as good' version?

How's about SR009 + R10???

 

[sydneyaudio]

Ha, I was being sarcastic -regarding the price of the "new" HE90/HEV90 mentioned above. My bad attempt at humour.
How much is an R10 these days anyway?
