$149, which is a decent price. And they look pretty nice to me:

Hmm, A71 or wait for the T2 and B6? My mind says T2, but maybe more A71 impressions will get me over.
 
So far, I like the AKG 7XX. Impressive for $200.

Who knows when the B6 will come out? Could be a long wait, like the VSonics? The T2 might now sound as great as you might want? The A71? It's stellar and highly recommended!

Oh and it's still on sale on Amazon!

But not MIND BLOWING AMAZEB@LLZ AMAZING seems to be the general consensus. Just another "good for the price" kinda can. Might be willing to play with a set if i can get them for around $150 on the sales forums or something but no rush nor any lust after them tbh.
 
Wonder how these 7XX compare to the AKG K712 Pro editions......
... damn a_recording has gots me a bit interested in those pros. haha

[gikigill]

Anyone interested in trying the DS-H68?

It's probably a Panasonic OEM.

Whoa...
 

Sound Quality
Stunning really, completely unexpected. This is really a terrific sounding headphone at the $129 price.
 
Summary
As an audiophile, I get pretty disappointed when a headphone nails styling and comfort, but falls flat with sound quality. The Koss SP330 is somewhat the reverse: The build falls a little short, but the sound quality is way better than the price would suggest. Seems to me, if you are going to fall short (and they all do one way or another), this is the way to do it. You give me great sound, and I'll forgive a few warts.
 
Yup, the SP330 is going up on the "Wall of Fame" based largely on its on its outstanding sonic performance. It does fall a little short on some peripheral issues (doesn't fold, no mic/remote, case is large, a bit underwhelming in design at the price), but to my ears, and to those who care about sound quality, this headphone is a big win for Koss. Whether it's a big enough win to give the company a much needed boost, I don't know...but it's a great start.

 
Like I said... whoa. Thanks for pointing that one out nick!
 
Edit: I may have finally found my "gym" headphone! Save me from getting some Beats to fit in with the crowd lol

SF,
 
The AKG K7XX IS the K712 Pro in all black, and with a much nicer price. a K712 and now 7XX owner just confirmed it.
 
It will also be the cheapest high-quality Balanced 4-pin XLR headphone available after I mod and recable it for my Geek Pulse Xfi.
