Just grabbed a pair. My A40 headset needs to go, the mic stopped working months ago and now I get a constant popping on both sides. Bummer you can't use Prime for shipping but still a hell of a deal.
Nope, using amazon checked out is still 75$
How do these compare to the Grado SR-60's?
Just making sure: You do realize these are headphones not headsets right?
Yes sir, I'll just get a clip-on mic. Thanks for checking though. My mixamp should be able to drive these pretty well hopefully.
These headphones are great! There is a simple 5 minute mod you can do that turns these into the HD595s, and it's reversible!

There's also a "soundstage mod" that involves cutting out the inner grill/mesh. It's not reversible, but I think it makes them sound noticeably better.

Whoa, thanks! I've had these headphones for almost 3 years and I love them, but I want to try this mod.
Another thing I want to do is replace the cable with a much shorter one that ends in a 1/8" plug. Right now I'm using a 1/4->1/8 adapter, plus a little pigtail to save stress on headphone jacks.
not saying you shouldn't try it, but ive heard from quite a few people who did that it really made no difference doing that mod
Its been a while since I jumped on a deal from AT. Couldn't resist this one. Thanks guys for a very nice find.
deal seems dead now? noooooooooooooooo!
Weird....I just ordered without talking to anybody.Yup just ordered mine The guy said since they are running low on inventory you can only order via chat or phone.
