@skeeder. Took delivery and sadly it was the studios. Called Musician's friend and they said it was a mistake on their website. Sad but my search continues.

$10,000 for a used HD 558
 
Man, those must be the headphones to get

Damn I should have waited on my DT990pro order. Brian "Razordog" is really a fantastic person to deal with.

Razordog will soon be carrying Beyers... a smart move on their part, assuming they give us an incentive to buy from them, the way they did with the HD598 and PC360 before.

 

 

[fueltank]

Looks like I might wait for RazorDog to get some closed back Beyers in then

[simonlsays]

Yup - will return. They were very nice about it so shouldn't be a problem.

Bummer, Man - got your PM.
 
Check this out, though.  For about $25 more, you can get the 240 MKII here: (wow - huge URL)

Here, the pic is correct, the product description is correct, but they have "studio standard" after the title - most likely just descriptive language regarding the use of these headphones in recording studios.  Still - I'd be pissed if I got the K240 Studio from this order - especially since this one has the correct photo. 
 
We'll see.  I think I'm pulling the trigger on these, but haven't dealt with this company before.
 
 

 

[simonlsays]

Hmm...thanks for that link. Definitely disappointed about getting the wrong ones. I'm still debating between this pair and the TMA-1s. I probably could use a portable pair more so than one that would stay more at home so we'll see.

Hoping Razerdog gets in the Beyer MMX 300s and has a decent deal on them.  I've been looking in the for sale and haven't seen a sign of them yet.

pioneer SE A1000 for $69.00 (via Beachcamera)

Looking around Headfi I couldn't find much on them, except they retailed for $150 a couple years ago.
 
EDIT: also at the egg

For the A5+?  The code for audioengineusa.com is 10% off $399.99 isn't it?

Seems you are right.  I did not realize they raised the price $50 on the A5+ over the A5's.

Used Klipsch Custom 3 for $70 on Amazon anyone?
 
I would jump but I'm slightly terrified of the cable issues.
