The Senn HD580's have been discontinued for a while now.
Just for those of you intrested you can get them here http://www.getpartsonline.com/hd580....ate&code=hd580 for $122.99. They are refurbs. Mine arrived a few days ago and they looked brand new, even had the brand new headphone smell going on.

Thanks for the heads-up! Mine should be here on Wed. Hope they smell just like yours.

thanks for posting this up. I know some people who have been looking for some

For something at that price that sounds about the same as these HD600 is a bargain hard to pass up!

Now's your chance!

 

[tomb]

Looks like they're out of stock already ...

 

[tbonner1]

Even the 580 refurbs are getting hard to find.

Thanks you a-hole, now everybody knows they've all sold out I had to order a Denon D2000 at twice the cost

 

[andrew3199]

Yep! Looks like they are all sold out. It's nice to know that some of the Head-Fi team snapped up the last few....What a bargain Ehhh....

Mine arrived safe and sound. I was a bit surprised by the plastic bag packaging, as their site implied they would be in the original packaging. However, they are in mint condition (even the smell

).

Compared to the HD595s, they had a lot more clamping force initially, to the point of discomfort. However, after a couple nights of being gently stretched over a chair cushion, they are now nice and comfy.

I ordered an HD650 cable from S-USA as it is supposed to be more durable. HD600 grilles as well (mostly for the looks). I should be all set once those minor upgrades arrive.

and that should raise them to about the level of an HD600

bargain of the century i think (HD580 + cheap easy mods)

so now all of us 580 owners have a collectors item.

Okay -- who will offer me $400 for my new (not refurbs) HD580's?

edit: price bump UP! (They sound too good)

 

[F107plus5]

Yahoo! Just feel the HD580/600 love!

....and I do so love mine as well!

I love threads like this.

Agreed. My HD600 grilles and HD650 cable arrived yesterday. I realize this is probably old news, but those grilles really make a big difference visually. Much more high-end looking.

hehe yeah, initially the HD600 grilles were to replace the cheap looking HD580s ones and then the HD650 cable was to replace the flimsy HD580 one that was also terminated in 3.5mm but in the end i was pleasantly surprised that the different in SQ was for the better
