This is sold and shipped by Amazon actual. The Amazon Chermany price is 219 euro. As most of you know, a euro is usually 1.1x of a dollar.

Sennheiser HD 400S Closed Over-Ears for $50
If you are looking for a budget closed-back headphone with nice thick earpads and detachable cable, then $50 is what it takes to get the new condition wired closed-back over-ear Sennheiser HD 400S at authorized dealers such as Amazon and the official online Sennheiser store and B&H Photo and Adorama…
I haven’t seen or touched the HD 400S, but I’ve had an older version, the HD 4.20S, here’s our text and pictures unboxing of that… Sadly the HD 4.20S cable was NOT detachable. So Sennheiser can learn over time 🙂

Tired of conventional drivers? And have $750 ready to go? That’s how much the Monoprice Monolith AMT headphones have dropped down to, from their standard price of $1000. They have zero customer reviews, so you would be boldly going 🙂
AMT stands for “Air Motion Transformer”. They may look like electrostatics from afar, but they are not. This technology comes from the world of speakers – see Wikipedia and of course your favorite audiophool forums and websites and such…
Needless to say, these are definitely for the boldly going!
$180 your Sennheiser choice: HD 6XX or HD 560S

Or you can buy them both and spend in the rest of 2022 writing comparison posts on reddit and headfi and Zeosfi and such 😉
The HD 560S goes for $180 elsewhere as well, BUT if your Massdrop order total is $250+, you can earn a $20 promotional bonus as part of their Black Friday bonus promotion…
