EDIT : Price went back up to what it was around to begin with, so I decided to get the deal expired. It's still at a good price (AUD $26.07) though (cheaper than Australian retailers as far as I know)
EDIT 2: Amazon stopped shipping these internationally :(
USD | AUD | |

Price (Inc Shipping) | $17.79 | $23.92 |
AUD conversion was done with Amazon Currency Converter, so it may come out better with other means.
This price is the cheapest it has been since last September according to CamelCamelCamel. Cheaper than the cheapest on staticICE.
Anyways, this headphone frequently appears on recommendations when someone asks for a budget headphone out under $100. I personally think there is some hype on this headphone, but at this price, it's hard to find something that sounds as decent as this one. Other than how uncomfortable it is to use it (the clip requires frequent adjustments until you get it to the position you like), I think it at the very least, worth its price.
You can use it to replace the units of PortaPro (they are interchangable). It's slightly uncomfortable without the headphone band, so many people choose to get a headphone band that KSC-75 units can mount onto i.e. PortaPro headphone band etc.
The headphone pad can get damaged very easily (I've never changed mine, but so I've heard), I'd recommend buying spare pads along with it as well (though if you want to get it from Amazon, you'd need to spend over USD $25).
Still my favourite headphones under $100 by far.
