Drop.com [drop.com]Massdrop + Sennheiser HD 6XX Audiophile Headphones for $218 - $10 new email signup = $208

Description:
If you know audio gear, you know the Sennheiser HD 650. The company's flagship from 2003 to 2009, this open-back headphone has shown serious staying power. Praised for its richly detailed, effortlessly enjoyable sound, it remains one of the most talked-about products on Head-Fi today—and is still widely considered among the best headphones under $1,000. A new revision of the popular all-rounder, the Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 6XX has that same great sound plus a few updates .Refreshed Aesthetic, Improved Utility. Crafted with the modern audiophile in mind, the HD 6XX replaces the HD 650's gray colorway with something darker and more dramatic: a deep midnight blue. The silver nameplates have been swapped for black plates with contrasting silver text—and the Massdrop logo is silk-screened on the inside of the headband, just above the right cup, with the serial number located just above the left cup. Based on feedback from the community, this iteration has also been updated with a detachable 6-foot cable (compared to the original's 10-foot cable) and a ⅛-inch plug, which is more versatile for everyday laptop, phone, and DAP use than the standard ¼-inch plug. Of course, the HD 6XX comes with a ¼-inch adapter for those who want it.

I want to say these are often recommended as some of the best Drop headphones - I've been wanting a nice pair of headphones so pulled the trigger.

Also, oh my god Drop has Lord of the Rings keycaps [drop.com] and I didn't know that till now...

They WERE often recommended. There are reports that QC has gone down significantly since they moved the manufacturing from Ireland to Romania.

Wow I miss the days when these were like $160 on sale. Stuff has definitely changed unfortunately. I personally like the 58X better. The 650 is great but you need a solid amp to get it where it needs to be. The 58X is a little brighter and much easier to drive.

I can't really speak to QC since I have a very early pair. Still a solid choice in the price range either way.
