Of course I don't expect the exact year, but perhaps the decade? I assume they're vintage because of the double entry cable and the older Beyerdynamic logo. I just picked them up on ebay for $82 and they look like they've almost never been used. There was only one other bidder, so I got them for a very good price. The sound is uhhhh...interesting. Perhaps they need some burn in....as I said they look unused. They're very detailed sounding in the mids, but there's no warmth at all to the sound. I had the 25 ohm version and going from memory, I preferred those. These need an amp, of course. You can see my O2 in the photos. Any opinions on the date(decade?) of manufacture
