It's a great piece. I began my burn-in process by cleaning out the gutters yesterday.


Started some exterior prepping for painting with mine. Today, I get to test it out setup on some steps. This ladder is the bomb for a homeowner :)

If it was a ladder instead of stereo gear, something to do work around the house, the look would be one of "my hero" instead of "you bum!"

I just recently bought Audio Technica ATH-W1000X new in box from my local Best Buy Magnolia it was a Magnolia AV home design I think there is a difference between this and the regular magnolia. Anyhow the price was 250.00 new in box obviously authorized dealer. I bought from the Woodlands Tx store and they can take orders and have them shipped to your local best buy I asked. They do not have any in stock but they told me they can ship them from one store to another looking at the inventory screen he was showing about 10-12 throughout the U.S. I'm sure you can get them at any Magnolia home design but I just mentioned this one since they have always given me great service unlike the other Magnolia stores in the Houston area and they can take care of you over the phone.

ATH-W1000X 250.00

It's not at all unusual to see Magnolia offering better prices in store and not reflecting those prices online. If you have a Best Buy Magnolia store nearby I suggest giving them a call and asking. I was a Magnolia salesperson for a few years, back when it was primarily a stand-alone company, and that was still true back then.

That may be but I would highly recommend given the woodlands Tx store a call they for sure have them on sale for 250.00 I just bought them today. I'm really enjoying this headphone and it is more than worth 250.00 and a phone call. I really wanted fellow headfi members in on this awesome deal I'm a lurker here but I wanted to pass on this good deal to you guys.

This same thing happened back when Magnolia had the Denon D600 on sale for $150 (down from $400).  It was in-store only and half the time the employees didn't even know it was on sale until you made them check the computer.  That was a pretty good deal.

I find when I stand on the top rung, the highs become more airy but the atmosphere rarefied, compared to on the ground where the bass has a full earthy tone and the atmosphere positively drips. Sometimes it even rains.

Indeed. I recall some years back when I purchased the Denon AH-7000 from Magnolia (before Best Buy acquired them) at a steal of $550 brand new and out the door.  Wish I would have kept them.

i got my ATH W1000s in HONG KONG in the high fi district, not speaking any Chinese, i pantomined up up up referring to
the quality headphones i wanted (they had 5000$ cables in the windows) until they finally brought out the W1000s and smiled
and laughed.  280$ us dollars there, a steal compared to the list price.  so 250$ is A GREAT PRICE!
