Used Beyerdynamic DT1770 for $385
We have even more Beyerdynamic action, this time it is their DT 1770 PRO studio headphones closed-back over-ear headphones with Tesla 2.0 technology. They go for $600 in new condition at authorized dealers, but as of the time of writing, there are many “Used – Very Good” condition listings for $385 at Amazon Warehouse Deals. Given the many listings, it is possible that price-pressure may build on these and prices will drop further down. They are not a consumer headphone that moves fast, so that increases its chances. But that’s not guarantee because many known and unknown factors seem to decide how Amazon Warehouse Deals prices go up and down.
NOTE: there are some quality control issues with these, eg these 1-Star reviews.
