VM Innovations had them for $33 around first week of december 2012.

 
For a new pair?  If so, that certainly was a much better deal.

How's the build?? This review is what stopped me from (buying) paying retail for these

I find that they feel very bulky and solid, but the material itself feels cheap. I feel like people base on the theory of them breaking and not them actually breaking. My most recent headphone I've received is the Koss Pro DJ 200 and seeing as how that's about $20 cheaper and has a lot of aluminum and phenomenal build quality, I'd probably be displeased at full retail, but again, that's based on feel. There's a lot there, I don't see them breaking under proper care.

The Gemini DJX-07 Professional DJ are $36 at Woot.com.  Not sure if these are a rebrand of another headphone.
 
They come with a set of extra velour pads which might be worth it as well...  http://tech.woot.com/offers/djx-07-dj-headphones-2

That's a good deal. Not for sure if they are a rebrand but a buddy has this same set and the sound very close to the Denon HP700.

I have an OEM of them: the Prodipe Pro800. They sounded great, but the adjusters snapped within 3 months.

Full size gaming headphones, the Logitech G930's

I have a pair of these myself from amazon and they seem pretty good. I paid £115 ish for them

They're £17 currently on the Tesco website

I guess it must be a pricing issue.

I have the HD 600's and they do sound very similar to the 555's.
I'm powering mine with an Asgard and the only really noticeable difference is the extension and soundstage.  Detail and everything else is only a hair better.
 

 
Really?? That close huh?? So the 555's are the better value in your opinion

I've owned both and I wouldn't say that. My memory of the 555 is rather murky, as it's been a while, but I don't like them nearly as much as the HD600. I got my HD600s cheap too, about $120 used.

Where on earth did you score that deal? i Though i lucked out at $240 used.

Someone was selling them locally and ended up breaking the cable that morning, so he reduced it to $120 and tossed in a Total Bithead amp for free. It was pretty unbelievable.

@ Soyverde
Yes a new pair with free shipping, I got one the senn HD 428.

 

[dxanex]

What's the lowest price anyone has seen on the Senn HD-598? Do they ever go below 150 for new?
