Are these AKG K240 sextetts? From the descriptions I've read, I think they are.

Look like them, but the sliders are not from the sextetts. Maybe they have been refurbished? They appear the have the white faced radiators which would mean late production. But I really can't tell from the pics. They do look like they are in good condition though. They also have the silver badges which were unique to the sextetts(as far as k240s go). The only way to be sure is to verify that there are 6 passive radiators surrounding the driver.

Appears they are indeed Sextetts. You can see the six white discs in the first picture.

Received these cans today.  They are very good condition, the pictures hid no defects.  Tested the resistance on each side right at 600 ohm.  They sound amazing.  A fun HP to listen to.

Yes, they are on mint condition. How much you paid for them? 
 
Sad that AKG is not making them anymore.

Picked them up on eBay for ~$108.  Not a score price.  But they are hard to find in this condition.
