Got my HD595s..

[Iceroyne 0]

A bit of a long story... I was looking to enter the audiophile headphones world. After looking around for information for quite some time at head-fi and here, I decided on buying a Sennheiser HD595 after having a px200 for quite some years. I'm not living in Singapore now, but by chance I had an opportunity to go to singapore 2 weeks ago.

 

I spent much of my time there searching for headphones and see if I could audition some to see if I had any second choiches. I think I went to most of the headphone stores mentioned here except Stereo which was too far for me ;p. The guy at Sonovox was really nice and I auditioned some beyers too. So after looking around for 3 days and just when I decided to buy it from someone in KL since it was a bit cheaper (I'm living in Sabah now), I stumbled upon a store by accident and found the HD595 for SGD255. I was quite suprised and bought it right away, my brother bought a Panasonic HJE50 for SGD44 too..

 

So now I'm enjoying my new setup at home (used audigy 7.1 -> new PA2V2 -> HD595) thinking it sounds the best out of the ones I could get. (ignorance is bliss )

Congratulations on your purchase.

 

If you happen to see any other interesting headphones over there don't forget to post their prices here. You never know when any one of us might be making a trip there in the future.

Is that store in Singapore?

Which store is it that sells 595 for 255?

I'm not sure if it was okay to post it out of the forums, as the price seemed way lower than normal, so I edited it out from my post. Would a regular here want to tell me if it's okay? ;p

 

Oh and the hd595 was the last one on display when I bought it.

Hi,

Not sure where this HD595 is made, , Wonder is that made in China or Ireland

Should be China, as I know all HD-595 should be made in China. Correct me if I'm wrong.

[Iceroyne 0]

Yeah they're form China, I think almost all Sennheisers are made in China.

Tempting! So no problems i reckon? I will like to get one! Hope still in stock when i got time to go there.

i think the reason is it has no warranty
