Not sure on stock levels at stores, because it seems to be one of their deleted lines, not on the website.

At Officeworks, in store only, these are a bargain

There were only 3 of each at my store.

Sennheiser HD518 - $60, RRP somewhere near between $150-$200

https://en-au.sennheiser.com/audio-headphones-stereo-hifi-tv…

  • Removable cord
  • Not too tight
  • Nice full bass

  • Still reasonably good Mids and Highs.

  • Needs an adapter or buy another cable for 3.5mm (adapter comes with it)

Sennheiser HD280 PRO - $75 RRP $179

https://en-au.sennheiser.com/hd-280-pro

  • Coiled Cord
  • Foldable
  • Does not leak sound
  • Bit tighter on the head
  • More accurate sound reproduction, less bass, clearer vocals strings etc.

I bought both to test them, to see which one I wanted more. Tested them both with an AMP, and Computer and Phone.

I liked the HD518s better, more just because they sounded more full, make you smile sound. Sounded better on the phone, which I will use them most on.

If you were doing audio engineering, or running a dedicated amp, maybe get the HD280s.

Each to their own. I would have been happy either way I think.

    How long are the audio cords on both of them?

    • Gehirn on 11/03/2017 - 16:26

      Pretty long for the 518.
      EDIT: 3m from Amazon's specifications.

    • smpantsonfire on 11/03/2017 - 16:29

      Yes 3m(1m coiled) on the 280, 3m straight on the 518.

    FWIW some places around me (VIC - western suburbs) still had some stock.

    Got the HD518 a few days ago from Frankston VIC for $60.
    It was the last one on the shelf and I don't recall seeing any HD280 or other headphones marked on clearance.
    Quite happy with it for the price.

    • CVonC on 12/03/2017 - 11:34

      why does that review say the 518 has a mic?

  • Dannyboi09 on 12/03/2017 - 11:02

    Does anyone have a receipt for the HD 280 pro price? I'm at an officeworks shop but their price for it is $99 not $75 :(

      Just get it scanned, might go through at $75, the ticket had 3 reductions on it

      $200-$175-$99-$75 or something.

      • Dannyboi09 on 12/03/2017 - 11:24

        This one went from 188>129>99

    • Dannyboi09 on 12/03/2017 - 11:43

      Got it for $75 the clearance ticket they had didn't even scan lol the sales person eventually manage to scan it and it was actually priced at $75 the manager was okay as well when I showed the receipt @smpantsonfire gave me. :D Thank you!

  • coolhand on 12/03/2017 - 12:24

    Haha damn this is a good deal! Guessing carnigie will be all sold out by the time I'm back in the country on Tues though

  • forge on 12/03/2017 - 15:12

    Picked up the last set of hd518s from Glebe (did not see the 280s on the shelves). Shelf price $79 but scanned at $60. Wouldve been an awesome deal even at 79. Thanks poster!

  • Australianjim on 12/03/2017 - 15:50

    Doesn't seem to include all senheisser at all stores. Just called Bunbury WA about RS120ii and they said they are just the usual price of $149.

  • WingedNike on 14/03/2017 - 13:05

    I managed to find one 280 on the stock shelf at Bourke st (not on the retail shelf), last one i think, so stoked :)

    Thankyou

  • Binxx on 15/04/2017 - 12:09

    OP thank you.

    I picked up a HD518 from Mulgrave store for $40. Last one there but some other models on clearance but just not as discounted.

    It is a present for an elderly relative as she was having problems with earphones on her iPad.

    • smpantsonfire on 15/04/2017 - 21:00

      Great to see this still giving!
