I just noticed that the Sony MDR-1A headphone is on sale again at Amazon France. You'll never find a price like this locally from retailers (local RRP $399.95). Unless you use a currency conversion fee free credit card then the majority of debit/credit cards attract a 2.5-3% fee. Also change the checkout payment to EUR so that you will pay in the banks own currency conversion rate instead of the Amazon currency conversion for best rate.

Silver colour version is also on sale for the same price.

  • xmchen on 06/09/2017 - 09:43

    so tempting..too hard to resist but I own the MDR-1RNCMK2 already..hmm

  • baldur on 06/09/2017 - 09:46

    is this better than audio technica ath m40x?

    Great headphones for this price. The comfort is amazing with these, it's like little clouds sitting on your head. Sound is really good, elevated bass response, clear and detailed.

  • Merlict on 06/09/2017 - 11:37

    Had these for a while. Honestly the sound isn't amazing but they're super comfy and look great.

    The included cable is like 3 inches long so order an extended one if you want to use them with a PC etc

      3 inches yeah right that equals to 7.62cm. A bit of an exaggeration there a little bit?. Or do you mean 3 feet?.

      The spec details say it's a 1.2m long cable. That's fine for using on a PC if the case is close enough.

      "Cable 1.2m Silver-coated OFC cable; 1.2m Silver-coated OFC cable with in-line remote and mic"

    These headphones sound incredible. Good price.. Bought mine around $300 awhile ago..

    should i go with a noise cancelling one or pull the trigger for this?

    https://www.storedj.com.au//audio-technica-anc9-noise-cancel…

    for example this one above, what do you think about this?

    • nereus on 06/09/2017 - 18:53

      These block the sound quite well. They are closed back and have a good seal around the ears. Depends on your situation?

  • scuderiarmani on 06/09/2017 - 13:55

    These and the higher one up are incredibly comfortable, one of the few I've ever liked honestly. Sound is perfectly fine too.

  • CountDuckula on 06/09/2017 - 15:05

    Cheers, Ordered.
    Just looking for a new set of over-ear cans last night :)

  • howyt on 06/09/2017 - 15:29

    Sorry if this is a silly comment, but how do I change the language to English?

    • beebul on 06/09/2017 - 15:33

      Use chrome and it will ask if you want to translate.. if it doesn't ask click the little icon in the address bar next to the favourites star.. it should translate to your browser set language

      • hollykryten on 06/09/2017 - 15:47

        Myself i use the Translate extension on Opera to automatically translate the language.

      • CountDuckula on 06/09/2017 - 15:52

        I couldnt be bothered installing chrome on my work PC, so just used chrome on my mobile which also has the automatic translate function.

    This is a video review of the MDR-1A done by a DJ. He rates it highly.

      I placed an order, but haven't had any money taken out of my card yet. Is this normal?

      • hollykryten on 07/09/2017 - 23:30

        It's normal. Money isn't taken out of the card until the item is about to be shipped.

  • hollykryten on 11/09/2017 - 14:36

    I just got this from the previous $149.20 Amazon France deal the two weeks before this deal here. And i can say they are amazing. Sound is really good and super comfortable. Well worth the approx $150 a steal!.

    You're in for a treat when you receive these from the courier.

  • jimbler on 11/09/2017 - 18:13

    My order just shipped from this deal. Saying it will be delivered on the 27th.

      Just to help you. My order from the previous deal said it was estimated to be delivered on the 12th. It however arrived on the 11th so it was spot on around the estimated delivery time. I live in regional QLD so it will probably be a few days earlier in a capital city.

  • flymetothemoon on 12/09/2017 - 11:04

    Ordered mine on the 6th and arrived this morning! Thanks, OP :)

    • hollykryten on 12/09/2017 - 11:25

      That was way quicker than i got mine ordered later last month.

    • hollykryten on 12/09/2017 - 15:50

      What do you think of the MDR-1A headphones?. I think it is pretty damn good for the price and got good bass too. The closed design does a good enough job at keeping out enough noise.

    • jimbler on 18/09/2017 - 10:09

      Did you order the fast shipping? My order hasn't changed since last Monday. Seems strange that it would just sit there for a week.

        My order from the previous sale did that for ages well for nearly a week of nothing, and then suddenly it came up with saying "problem solved" and then a few days later it was being cleared through customs. That's probably why mine took over 2 weeks to arrive. Yours could be experiencing the same thing. Half the time it was stuck in the UK and then another half of the time it was in the Australian postal delivery system. Only took a few days to arrive to customs after leaving the UK. The local postal systems are always the let down.
