Updated, thanks mate
The following are also 50% off:
This deserves it's own post imo.
Thanks, I ordered the WS770is once it was out of stock so they are sending me a 1100is instead. Cheers :D
My ATH A900X have been good but I did have to replace the ear foam covers after 2 years as they started to disintegrate .
On the plus side the covers were cheap on Ebay .
My ATH-ANC7b's have been nothing but trouble. They sound ok when they work, but they are really flaky. I can't go more than a couple of minutes without one ear or the other cutting out now.
Are these better than the M50x?
Though who am I kidding, I don't need new headphones.
I was about to ask this lol (need a new pair of cans) - so if anyone wants to answer, please do.
These appear to be on ear - aren't the M50x over ear?
You're right, these are On Ear. Not a fan because they're not that comfortable for me.
I also have the Audio Technica AR5BT's which are Over Ears.

I don't either. Bought the SHP9500 from AliExpress the other day. But it's not to say I'm not tempted lol
Anything is better then the m50, they sound so bland
It was designed for the music production (ie flat frequency) not enjoying music. Have you tried a pair of Yamaha monitor hs series? Same thing.
Hah, I'm on the same boat. I want new headphones, but I don't need them.
Not bad.
Go with Kogan then, to avoid the pccg cc surcharge!
PCCG has free shipping, Kogan is $13.95.
Besides, better to keep it local.
Free with Shipster
PCCG has free shipping, Kogan is $13.95.
Good point about that. Forgot to mention shipster as below.
There's also the fact that you can refer your imaginary friends to Kogan and get -$10
Besides, better to keep it local.
Couldn't give a (profanity) about that. Local == Harvey Norman / EB Games == ripoff.
PCCG has stopped CC surcharge long time ago, when was the last time you visit the shop????
Probably a while ago. Never went back because of the surcharge.
Just purchased. I hope no one makes a comment that will make me regret my decision.
My only other experience with high quality headphones is with a hand-me-down AKG K7XX but one side stopped working when a cable came apart, it could be repaired with soldering but I've been too lazy to attempt the repair.
After a quick google, there's been mixed reviews of these headphones, but this is a big discount from the rrp. This headphone is also selling for $99 from other stores but they also have shipping costs. So the $99 price doesn't seem that 'special'.
At least these have a removable cable. I also had a set of AudioTechnics - cable died, had to repair with soldering. Eventually died elsewhere on the cable so tossed $250 headphones in the bin.
The only downside I see with these are that they are on-ear. But you probably knew that already and if you purchased them then that means it's not as big of a problem for you as it is for me.
Good luck and enjoy.
I actually prefer over-ear headphones as I have big ears, I'm definitely worried about it being on-ear. Only purchased because I really need a new headphone. I hope it works out for me too, thanks.
For 100 bucks I doubt you'll have much regrets. Use it while you can save up for something more permanent and just pass em down to a family member or something when you upgrade.
With the memory foam you won't notice the pressure as much with on-ears. I have the 1MORE Triple Driver On-Ears and they are very comfy.
Over ear has its advantages but traps heat and becomes uncomfortable for me sometimes
AKG K7XX has a removable cable (mini-XLR). Why not just buy a new cable for a few bucks?
Sorry to say but the AKG will sound and feel better than these.
Sorry, I wasn't sure how to describe it, it's the wire inside the headphone that broke. The cable is fine.
You know what, I'll try to cancel my order then buy a soldering kit and attempt the repair. My problem is apparently a common problem so there should be enough resources to guide me.
Oh, in that case then yes it will take a bit more work, but it shouldn't be too difficult to take apart and re-solder the contacts inside the ear cup. If you get stuck feel free to PM me.
I would also try and contact Massdrop / AKG customer service and see what they say, you could get lucky with a good CS rep!
Let me know if you want to sell your broken K7XX
Not worth $270 but $99 is a bargain!
anyone know if these will be good on a plane?
no noise cancelling
Yes, what my counterpart said above - these aren't the droids cans your looking for.
anyone know of good noise cancelling headphones for plane trips that doesn't cost an arm and a leg..
I really like my Sennheiser HD 4.50 BTNC from the Sennheiser refurb deal posted here. $150 with free delivery.
link? :)
This website will let you know.

Any good headsets around for Xbox with mic for my son??
Hard to go wrong with the Kingston HyperX Cloud series
https://thewirecutter.com/reviews/best-gaming-headset/
you can get one locally for around $65 (http://staticice.com.au/cgi-bin/search.cgi?q=cloud+core&spos…)
Many thanks - will investigate
would these be good for a podcasting environment? ie do they bleed sound?
PCCG having good deals? When?!
A quick google search shows multiple retailers are selling at the same price or $10 higher. Is it really a good deal?
https://www.dicksmith.com.au/da/buy/audio-technica-ath-sr5-o…
https://www.kogan.com/au/buy/audio-technica-ath-sr5-on-ear-h…
P.s. Kogan owns DSE, so this makes sense.
These would most likely be grey imports and to your point, "multiple retailers" is actually two links to essentially the same retailer.
I think this is a deal PCCG are reputable and local, if you had a warranty issue way better chance of help with them as well.
Audio Technica headphones sound so bland..
As did any good speaker, until it’s amplified!
Those aren't speakers. These are speakers.
