AWESOME recommendations, luv....THANK YOU! I own ATH-M50's. Only thing I've done to them after many years was recently replace the pads with the Brainwavz leather jobbies. Very nice upgrade to the comfort. Much nicer on the ears. I run my HD650's out of a Ygg >> Woo WA7, but to be frank...

My apologies...a deal on a CLOSED BACK, wired, over the ear, easy to drive, fairly neutral and well built cans. The HD6XX's are hard to drive. I own 650's...love them but I have serious amps. I'll check out the purple hearts on MD now.... Thanks to GT, luvmusic, and RoMee! Thank you Deals...

Deals forum to the rescue.... Looking for a super comfortable for long listening sessions pair of wired, over the ear headphones that are easily driven by a phone / laptop and have good construction quality for a college student...male at that. Budget upper end is $250 and preferably below...

One heck of a deal, Luv. Thank you all the same! HS

Managed to quote you with no response...LOL Thanks, Luv. I went out there and it's telling me it is not available for store pickup or for shipping to my zip. GREAT offer but looks like I was late. HS

Looking for a deal on a wireless headphone for TV. Senn's took a poop. Maybe something that will help my bluetooth headphones work with my TV would be an option. Thanks. HS

Are we sticking to this thread for Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals or are there any separate ones started? HS

Thank you, Raketen. HS

Deals thread, What is the best price you've seen on the Sony MDR-Z7. I saw the recent Massdrop deal and I've looked at camel. Thanks. HS

The replacement pads showed up. Delivery attempted Saturday, but apparently we were out. $63 delivered. HS

Thanks, but they're ordered. Done deal. I'll report back as to how it turns out for others' reference. HS

I've used FromJapan over the years with some success. I went ahead and ordered them through them. I'll post up how that goes once they arrive. A heck of a lot less expensive... HS

Thank you. Yes, I did that and best I found was $114/pair without shipping. I was hoping someone had located a more reasonably priced source. If an opportunity arises for purchasing via Japan I will take it, but my business no longer takes me or peers to Asia Pacific I'm afraid. HS

I have to admit I could not keep up with this thread so forgive what is likely a question that has been covered previously. I need a pair of replacement earpads as they are splitting at the seam on my son's Z7's that have gotten a lot of use of the last few years. Clearly not an inexpensive...
