They're $49.99 today (2007-02-16) only. 210s are $24.99.

Scored myself some 220s. Can't wait to see how much of a step up they are from my current JVC HS-FX55s!

Crap! I was so excited to see the deal I didn't notice the free delivery option.

<sigh>

Win some, lose some! Thanks for letting everyone know!

(Maybe I can cancel and re-order?)

Can you get this deal at the store? thanks for the heads up.

Sweet, I have some being held at my local staples for the special price. Would anyone recommend these over the vibes, I am currently looking for a mobile and microphonicless counterpart to my er-4ps.

I still have some microphonics problems with the 220s. Not as bad as the E2c I had, but it's noticable if you let the cord dangle in front of you while moving around.

Anyone tried the 210s? I have PK2s on the way, but I've been wanting to try good buds for a while and am thinking about picking these up since on sale.

Damn you Head-Fi! I didn't really need paperclips. The easy button thing is a bunch of crap too, it took forever to place my order. I hope these sound at least close to as good as the K81dj, then I won't have to lug them around with me anymore.

I like them quite a bit more than the FX55. It's kind of like an improved FX55 to be honest, with strong bass, but better mids and detail. I like the tips from the FX55 better so I'm using those with my 220s.

The 220s have more microphonics than my er6i. Not sure how they would compare to er4p since it's been awhile since I listened to them. I'm thinking of buying an etymotic shirt clip (for ER6) to reduce microphonics with them. The clip works pretty well with my ER6i.

Make it $50 and then add coupon from ebay ($20 off $50)
do the math and save money!

 

[Cooter]

Try running your cables up over the top of your ears and around the back side instead of just dangling straight down. When I wear my 220's this way the microphonics are completely eliminated. (eliminated, not just reduced)

The difference is amazing.
