Has anyone noticed the price of AKG K271 MKII on Amazon?

There are a lot of sellers who are selling the K271 MKII around $130. Does this mean that AKG has a replacement coming down the pipe soon?

They just came out with the K550 but I don't know if that's a direct replacement, but it's their new top of the line sealed phone.

That has been the price for a long time now

Looks like a good value. Not sure how they sound compared to 240 mkII.
