Creative is not a known brand, eh? As for them being wired, they have better sound quality than the vast majority of over-ear Bluetooth cans, for sure.For those that are not randomly hating with misinformation, these are pretty good closed back cans, and are great at this price.

these headphones were quite popular back in the day as they are a rebadged version of the denon d1001.

MSRP was $100 for them or ~$70 during good sales.

Creative is/was a well known company in the world of PC audio. Maybe they were before your time or you weren't into PC audio. shrug

These are actually decent headphones (foster bio cellulose drivers), but beware if you have large ears.

I love the msrp prices on woot. They probably go out of their way to find the highest and the most unreasonable price to make the sale price look like a deal. This is not a known brand and it's wired. Why in the world would anyone pay 60 to get this new?

Yes, and one does not have to use the Woot app to get the price. These are actually quite a bargain for well rated HPs w/Fostex drivers.

Creative is an amazing tech company. They have introduced so many amazing products like The Sound Blaster live , Gigaworks, E-MU, X-FI, Audigy, Nomad and many more.

I don't hear about them as much anymore, but I remember they definitely used to be the name in sound for PCs. Maybe I'm wrong on both of those points though, haha.

Snagged one, the ones I owned for probably 12 years broke and it is acuatlly cheaper to replace them at this price than repairing them.

Got in on one. Thanks op. Never heard of these before but all of the reviews seem to indicate they are an og Denon clone from 12+ yrs ago that even at 100 were a steal in sound Quality. Impossible to pass up at 15 bucks.
