 anyone has experience with refurblished sennheisers? since they are authorized dealer this might be a good deal I'm still thinking DT880 600($244 brand new) or this HD600
this'll def hurt my wallet though lol

I've bought 2 refurbished PC 150 headsets and they were both like-new with no signs of use at all and worked perfectly. But that was several years ago.

I would love to get these but I hate the idea of a 1/4" plug. Does anyone know if its possible at all to get an SR 125i w/ a mini-plug?


 Nope (unless you pay for a cord mod which will probably void your warranty) but Grado, Senn and others sell short cord adapters.

Ultrason hfi 2400 $181

www.amazon.com/ULTRASONE-HFI-2400-Professional-Open-Back-Headphones/dp/B002W37ESY/ref=lh_ni_t

Cheapest I have seen them. Really tempted because I want a headphone for movies. Stuck between them an denon 2000 or denon 5000 and hifiman 400.

But denons being discontinued seems to make the decision for me. Makes me mad because I wanted to wait for my amp before ordering. Took an extra month to get it now all the good deals are gone.

Have patience my friend, new deals pop up all the time. Of course, I know with these things patience can be difficult :)
 
From what I've read I would lean toward the Denons and the Hifiman over the Ultrasone but what do I know.. I haven't had the pleasure of listening to any of them yet :wink:
 
Oh and being discontinued just means you'll probably be able to find an even better price on them. I'm sure there will still be some floating around when you get around to buying them.

That is a fantastic deal!  I love the 2400s.

RMCaudiodirect.com  has Signature Pros for $850, but you must call to get the price (too low to publish compared to $1,299 MSRP).  This was the last time I called and may have changed, but worth calling to save $450.  I did confirm with Ultrasone that they are an authorized retailer.

How would you compare them to the D2000s?

I don't own the D2000s so I can't directly compare them.  I do find the HFI2400s to be a great all-purpose headphone.  I don't think there is one genre of music that these fail to do justice.  
 
Do note that the D2000s are closed-back and the HFI2400s are open-back.  Although, I have heard that the D2000 leak so much sound that they might as well be open.
