the x2hr/00 the new one is £269 which is $354

United states does not pay VAT. It is not 167 euro to be shipped here.

I know but pounds £ are not euros € . The exchange rate is all over the place right now for reasons we do not wish to discuss here...

Even after taking off the vat I don't think it would be $150... too tired to do the math... up ALL night listening to music and then an amazon delivery woke me three hours later...

£167 -20% = 134 which is $175 and that is used... probably all the returns after that sale on prime day

I have the LyxPro HAS30 and the Lasmex L-85. They all have different sigs but the 400i bests them in width, imaging and spacing. Only mod I have on the 400i is a 2.5mm balanced cable. Considering getting the pad rings and putting on Brainwavz sheepskin (Ori pads are a bit too expensive for my tastes but hear they work very well so I may do it)

Fwiw the HE400i is the second best Chinese headphones that I own (only beaten by the HE560 ). Seriously though, imo they're a considerable step up from the Takstar Pro80, HI2050, MSUR N550, Yenona, Superlux HD662f etc.

Btw, my Aliexpress "HM5" pads arrived today and they're the real deal. They might be a touch smaller than my older ones but I've seen variations in my multiple pairs from before as well so might just be batch variations.

I paid $25 shipped in total for a pair of hybrids and a pair of angled pleather ones. I see prices are even lower now and will be even more so on 11/11.....

Just snagged a pair of 99C on here for $200. L-85 going back tomorrow. I highly recommend them but no need for another open back. 400i suits me
