500+ Head-Fier
They were first in production in 1975.
Original MSRP in Japan was 16,000 JPY, ~$133.50 USD in 1975. Factoring in inflation rates, that's almost $600 USD in today's money. These were the second most expensive headphone in the world at the time, the first being KOSS's ESP/10, which was <FAR> higher in cost (100,000 JPY)
wow!!! 100,00 JPY?? that's what? nearly $800 in 1974 $(or well over $3000 in todays $)? Does anyone on here own a pair of the Koss ESP/10??
