This is the cheapest I could find for this piece. This has some of the best reviews for a studio quality headphone. Sells in amazon.com for twice as much. Go for it.

when was this?

Even better when I discovered I had COTD Store Credit that was due to expire :)
got this pair for $70.00 last time they were on sale at COTD, really happy with the purchase.
You had me until I saw the previous price people got them for.
Sounds silly I know but impulse buys are.
I paid around $250 - rrp for these, they are worth it and shouldn't be discounted, unlike that POS beats shit. Great price, you pricks don't deserve such an awesome bargain.
Comment of the year?
Got these for $80 last time. They'd be worth the $250 RRP. For $80 it's probably my bargain of the year.
So yeah, still worth $130 if you missed out. They're kinda uncomfortable after wearing them for a long time though.
I've been tracking CotD's price on these for the past month and I'll bite when they go on sale again (if I can wait that long… I'd buy it now if I didn't know about the $70 sale).
I'm also checking every day for the past week to see if it's been added to the 20% off boxing day sale they have on (The Pro 500 was added last night).
http://www.catchoftheday.com.au/e/clearance/event/44405/?brand[]=2869There's a couple of mods you can do to these headphones to suit your tastes. Adding cork to the insides and thickening the pads to make the drivers sit a little further away.

Just received delivery of these. Immediately more comfortable than the Audio Technica ATM50 and a much better sound. These are twice the headphones that the ATM50 are. They are probably 70-80% of the headphones that my Sony MDR 7520 are. Might be a useful reference to someone.
Got mine this morning and I'm very impressed with it. Well, that's a given since I'm coming from a cheap no-brand headphones off ebay so music-wise it's a massive upgrade. It makes me want to test other great headphones and compare.
Plugging it into my Yamaha receiver and playing the trailer for Star Wars ep 7 was a thrilling ride. I think I had the volume up a bit too much because it made me look around to see if there was a minor earth tremor or if my subwoofer was being used.
Now to find some 5.1 sound clips and test out the Silent Cinema (virtual surround) headphone function of the reciever.
If only it was $79 again :( but neverless its still a great price.
