Hundred peso discount in Audiophiles if you pay in cash.  ;)

it cost 3,800 last time I check for the non-limited edition ones so getting the LE is a better option :P

Yeap, that would be the only drawback the LE has for some. But it isn't for me. I mainly use these outdoors.

just buy em
they're pretty darn close to grados in terms of the amount of mods you can do to em .. so youll have some pretty flexible cans
you'll see a 100+ page K81dj thread on head-fi
if you're collecting [insert booty to be acquired] only for the sake of bragging rights, then you really ought to buy a lot more, you musn't stop compensating for whatever it is you feel lacking.

Has anyone scratched the L and R markings on top of the cups? Weird, 'cause the Y design on the cups don't easily get scratched, but the L and R markings do.  ???

I'm trying to be careful of handling them even more, but the nicks on those little areas are sort of (???) unavoidable. Maybe 'cause it's made in china?  ::)

The connection of those parts to the cups are badly scratched as well, but it isn't really noticeable.

A really bad one in that case?  ??? Well as long as the SQ's unaffected, I'm good. Could those be repainted tho?
