I've been researching these headphones for the last couple of days and have seen many mentions of people buying 518 / 558 / 598 for <100$, 100-130$, 160-190$. What gives? All the prices I find are 25-40% higher. Is this a recent jump in price due to tax returns?
I'd love a 500 series Sennheiser headphone but my student budget is 130-170$ and I'd like to make my pennies count. If anyone knows a good place with a good price, (I'm from California) please do tell.
If you don't know a cheaper source, I'd like to hear your opinion whether hooking them up to a Xonar DG audio card is sufficient and whether the price difference between the 3 listed models is worth it. This will be my first full sized open cans. Thanks for reading and thanks in advance.
