It seems to me that HD580 comes with 2 different headband versions. One is sliver and the other is black. Is this true? or It's just a false display? Could someone clarify this?

I could be wrong here, but I think that the silver version on the Etronics site is what the HD580 actually looks like, while the black version on the JandR site is just an illustration of the HD600.

hey sapphiremodena, you also live in Vancouver?
I'm in Coquitlam

Wut setup do you have? I'm planning on purchasing the HD580 pretty soon.

The actual cans are a graphite grey color.

The first one (J&R) looks looks like a bad illustration of the 600 - the blue temple logo is the incriminating evidence.

Thanks for the help everyone

I guess I'll order one from JandR.com. (cheaper)

By the way, it sucks that the senn. rebate only valid in US. But well, the price I'm paying is still cheaper than any local store sells.

Not sure if your willing to wait for stock, but...

nevermorez,

You mentioned a Sennheiser rebate that is only valid in the US. Is it a CURRENT rebate? Does it apply to HD-580s? (EDIT [note to self]: Well, DUH, of COURSE IT APPLIES to '580s -- that's what he's buying Mike!) Where did you hear about this rebate?

Thanks!
Mike

Unfortunately, they don't ship internationally.

I was under the impression that newegg wasn't going to be getting more stock. Someone had said the 580 is discontinued? It's the first I've heard of it, is this true? I would call neweggm and see what they say. Though, if they won't ship to you, that's pretty much that...

 

[andrzejpw]

Personally, I doubt that newegg will get any more in stock ever. This really seemed like a one time deal

Yup, I live in Vancouver. Coquitlam, eh? Nice. The home of Matthew Good.

Where are you planning on purchasing your HD580's from, is it Jan Meier? 'Cause his prices are pretty decent. I might get some HD580/600's in the next 4 or so months, possibly from Jan... who knows, I change my mind a lot.

At the moment, I have a Panasonic SL-CT570 portable cd player, with some Sennheiser MX-400's. I also have some broken JVC clip-on's and a pair of broken Sony EX70's. I'm making a headphone amp, which should be finished soon, and I'm hoping to get a new CD/DVD player and set of nice headphones within the first quarter of 2003. Let's hope it all goes through as planned.

Yep, they also graduated from the same high school as me (Centennial High). But they went to SFU after. (I'm in UBC)

I just ordered a pair of HD580 from etronics.com and paid about $310 CAD for it.

I think it's $158.95 USD
I know it's not a cheapest deal, but the price is pretty reasonable though.
