Got these headphones a few weeks ago at their Marsden Park store as an early Christmas present to myself.

They're dead set amazing - brilliant audio quality, especially via the aux cable, comfortable, Bluetooth range (with my iPhone 6S) and battery life are great.

The cheapest I've found anywhere else is $279 + shipping at Scorptec and $299 at JB. RRP is $369

Edit: amended price from $299 to $299.99. Can't confirm whether any other stores have them. Took this photo on Saturday, so it's still ongoing.

  Oh FFS. The one pair of Audio-Technica cans I've been hanging out for to get this low price and it's only available to a lucky few. :(

    You can always get a membership, buy the headphones, then cancel and get a refund for your membership.

  Are these noise cancelling?

    No, not actively noise cancelling.

  Not sure the difference between AR5 and SR5, but anyone interested in these should checkout https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/345201

  Price has increased a bit now unless you don't mind brown which is US$80…

    Answering my own question. The AR5 and SR5 look to be very close specs and same RRP. The difference is styling and slightly different impedance. Frequency response and all other specs are the same. In short, go for the SR5's from Amazon and save…

    Also the AR5 are around ear, the SR5 sit on ear so better sound and isolation from the AR5BT's
