Sennheiser HD800s are coming in @ Amazon with free one-day shipping at $889 new every so often. They're coming in one unit at a time, so each unit is literally selling in seconds. It is unknown how long the price pulse is going to continue.

Amazon.com LLC is the distributor for the pulsed $889 price, so they should verified as far as I can tell {0}.

Orpheus for $15k and Aristaeus for $3.5k from a reputable seller:

I think I've been seeing HE90s go between $12-17k for the last year or two, so seems like a decent price.

I'm guessing "For Sale"-F5-refreshers have seen this one, but still:

ZD Prototype, looks pretty semi-Moth-ish. 1350 USD
Wonder how many were made..

2 years ago I was talking to Mikey about both prototypes for $2,000 plus some HD650.

So that price is high for a circuit that is not latest design and supposedly some good and some not so good parts.

No idea.  I've only heard one Dared amp and it wasn't very good, but this might be better.  Its basically a throw in as the listing is worth it for headphones + tubes.

Wow, that does sound good.  Get a Trends Class T amp for $235 and you're set.


He was also selling Omega 1's...

It's not the latest Offramp 5, but there's Empirical Offramp 4 w/ Hynes SPDIF, Turbo Clocks, latest transformer, and Dynamo power supply for $1650 OBO on Agon.

Not sure if it's a great deal as Empirical stuff doesn't go up too often, but worth a look if you're looking for a high-end USB/SPDIF converter.
