An amazing set of open ear headphones from Audio-Technica, one of the best in headphone manufacturing in my opinion. I had the AD700X and they were a dream but broke then due to an unfortunate desk chair accident and was looking to replace them with these but could not find them for a reasonable price then so bought the B&O H6's instead...bit annoyed now tbh! Great sounding if you like to use headphones at home (open ear headphones have some sound leakage so not good for travelling) and the cheapest I have ever seen these from a reasonable retailer, though I appreciate there are those that do not like eglobal.
For comparison, amazon has these at £279.00 and even at least £190 on ebay!!

eGlobal isn't based in the UK, despite the UK email address. The main reason their products are so cheap is they list items as gifts/electrical parts with low value to escape import charges. I got my seiko SKX009 extremely cheap from them, they can be trusted in my experience, however others have had issues I believe.
Good deal though

Would've bought if it wasn't for the Beyerdynamics open-back I got only a few months ago.

I like my m50s but not a patch on my BD 880. I had the 880pro but prefer the standard 880 model (Less Pressure)
How Bayer make the cans so comfy is marvelous. What model you get 990?

Yes, you do with the higher impedance ones. I use an external DAC for my PC & mobile phone.
£129.99 and then customs bends you over because it's sent from China.
It's cheap on their website for a reason.

Not true, I've bought an LG V20 smartphone and the Shanling M2s DAP (£270 & £130 respectively) and both were delivered via DPD from a UK address, they have stock in various locations around the world and move the goods into your country first before delivering :smile:

It's a good deal, but it makes sense to realise what you're buying into.
This 20 min mod is worth knowing about
