The new Fiio A3 portable headphone-amp currently goes for $60 but if you also happen to need a 3.5mm to RCA cable and don’t want to bother chasing it down separately, you can get the A3 bundled with an Extreme Audio cable of that ilk for $62 by ProStudio thru Amazon. That’s an extra $2 for the cable. The order is fulfilled by Amazon so you get the usual shipping options (free 2-day Prime or $35+ free slow shipping).

Sennheiser Momentum Over Ears (first gen) from $98 to $150 in various conditions
If you are interested in the first generation Sennheiser Momentum Over-Ears not in new condition, there are a couple of offers available depending on your comfort and risk level with non-new purchases. The lowest price (and higher risk) of the two mentioned in this posts are two offers from seller Adgtron (95%, 5000+ ratings) through Amazon Warehouse Deals. They are offering the brown color scheme in “Used – Like New” condition for $92 plus $6 flat shipping, and they are also offering it under the refurbished tab in refurbished condition for $100 plus $6 flat shipping. These ship from Adgtron (Florida), so they are not eligible for free 2-day Prime shipping for members. Both Adgtron listings state they are authorized dealers with warranty. Screenshot below:
Meanwhile, VM Innovations is offering either the brown or black colors in open-box condition for $150 with free shipping as one of the eBay featured deals. You get the three month refurbished Sennheiser warranty plus nine months of a VM Innovations warranty after that, for a total of 12 months warranty. Over 600 units sold so far from this offer.
As to what one could/would/should do, that’s really a personal decision depending on comfort level and risk tolerance levels and such. I can’t really decide for you, I am not Supreme Leader Kim AudioJing Phool-il 🙂
