My Sennheiser 555s are cracked on the side. Very, very tempted to pick up the 598s

Who paid you to grab Dr. Pavel?
Unless they fixed that design flaw, they are just going to crack again. my 555s and 558s had the same shit happen to them. Ain't buying Sennheisers like them again.

If you use earbuds, get those sennheiser headphones lol
I've never used them personally but going from earbuds to actual headphones=
I have SOL headphones and I can't go back to earbuds after getting actual headphones
The difference will have you like

Got em! I am reading they aren't too great for hip hop, which is probably my favorite/most listened to genre, but I'm not too worried. I'm sure they'll still sound a lot better than my crappy $20 panasonic headphones from last black friday!
Grabbed this. Hopefully there's a sale on Shinovi Versus sometime soon.

Are they better then AT M50?
Afraid I haven't tried those but aren't they closed headphones?
They'd be pretty different in sound. I prefer open like the 598s but it can be dependent on your needs.
Found this thread though: http://www.head-fi.org/t/614091/audio-technica-ath-m50-or-sennheiser-hd598

I agree, I'm sort of surprised there's so many of the physical editions too, thought it was going to be a small print.

Not Amazon, but still a pretty good deal for US Gaffers:
100$ itunes code for 75$
http://www.ebay.com/itm/100-iTunes-...90603?pt=US_Deal_Vouchers&hash=item3cecbf30cb
I'd love to buy it, but they won't let me, demands US Paypal account. Anybody know a similar deal from a site that sells to filthy foreigners?

Anybody else notice this?
Maybe Amazon might screw up and end up taking $100 off.
A man can dream. ;_;
Was wanting to check out some Astros. Type them up on Amazon, not on sale. Seems about right. 90% of the sales I've looked up are not even on, unless they were 5 minute deals.

I been stalking those Sennheiser HD 598 for months hoping for even a $20 discount. This might be my biggest BF pickup yet...and I'm going strictly off the praise they seem to get. Cant wait.
Ordered the Astro mix-amp to go with them. $79, normally $129. I have the old model and it is great. Works on everything.

is the razer blackwidow ultimate 2014 a worthy keyboard for $95? I feel like it would go well with my razer naga but im not that into matching color schemes if something better is available.

I not entirely sure as I have not been able to find much info at all outside of video of guy talking about it a bit, but I figure it at that price I might as well and throw the old model on Ebay for $50.
Here is that video...

as a european I can only say this.
Fuck amazon and their shitty sale, almost nothing I can take advantage of. Their sale last year was great with digital codes for BF4, PS+ etcetera.

My experiance with headphones is limited to the Sony Pulse Elites, which I didn't really enjoy much. I'd assume the Sennheiser HD 598s are way, way better?

So with the 598s...I've never owned an open headphone before. How loud are they to the people around me if I were watching a movie?
Also, is it safe to assume I'd be better off with a pair of headphones like the 598s rather than the Momentums if my primary use will be for movies?

Sony MDRV6 Studio M now $50

It will be a VERY long time before we see them again for $99. Lowest I can recall is $135 last year from Newegg. That's how long I have been looking out for a price drop. Most likely if you do not like them you can for sure make back your money selling them.

Not sure if they're Black Friday deals specifically, but right now Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition is $20, Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is $10, and Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes is $15. Might go for those...

Headphones retain quite a bit of their resale value especially the Sennheiser line. And yes, this is a fucking steal. The HD 558s have rarely hit the $100 mark and the 598s are the better versions of them.
Loud enough, I wouldn't recommend using them around company. But yeah, they're better than the Momentums for movies.

Hmm, that's a shame. I watched a demo of the 598s, and they didn't seem too bad unless I were to max out the volume on the input device. Maybe I'll still try them out. At this price, it doesn't really matter, and I could return/sell them if the sound leak is unbearable to my girlfriend. I wouldn't plan on using these in a library/transportation setting anyway. Just at home around my family so it really depends on how much it affects them.

I'm waiting to see how much the X1s will be at 10:50am EST but I'm either going to get those or the 598s.
You guys gotta be shitting me with this temptation. I hate all of you.

Just bought rising. Did someone ever make that FOV mod? I distinctly remember seeing a mod that pulled the camera out a bit more.

D3 has more mileage but that is just me. I heard it has improved a lot with the recent updates
I thought Evil Within was mediocre never played Diablo 3

Picked up Metro Redux on PS4 for 25 bucks. I couldn't resist that price for two excellent games.
D3 easily. Much more polished, long legs, great multiplayer.
