Cheapest I have seen and even trumps the existing deal from digital cinema

Note that these are also local stock with free delivery australia wide. Seems like sennheiser clearing stock at the moment.
Haha… you have saved money by not spending… yet.
What is B28?!
band 28. just a yarn
I have these and they are really good noise cancelling headphones.
Do you know how they compare against Bose QC35?
After an intense and long research I got the PXC550 and honestly I thing that I took that long to make that decision because everyone has a QC35 and it's so trendy… I thought that must be a great product… but, PXC550 is way more sophisticated & has more technology & the plastic doesn't feel cheap as the Bose.
There was only one advantage that I have notice on the Bose feels a bit more comfortable ( At least the first 10 minutes ), however I did wear the PXC550 for 8-9 hours straight and no problems, just needed to take them off for 5 minutes every 3-4 hours as I was getting my ears hot… probably would happen the same with the Bose.
PS: the touch controls are really handy, if you have big ears it may not suit you properly.
wow! Cheers for the feedback. I've looked through a few reviews and comparisons. Most seem to indicate that the PXC550 is at least on par or closely second to the QC35s
My partner has Boss QC35, IMO they are comparable for noise cancelling and sound quality. I do like the sound control on the PXC550 though.
If i was repurchasing, I’d buy whichever is cheapest at the time.
Tried it at JB, it's a pretty decent headphone with a lot features. Only thing that I don't like is the tight fit.
What!? No B28?? Pfttt, tell em they're dreamin :)
Trying to decide on new headphones myself at the moment but reviews and heart strings pulling in all directions. This set though are outside my budget.
