Pocket-Lint Review

Roughly 23.15AUD Delivered after 5% off voucher given here

VOUCH5R12

Pretty good deal - Officeworks sell these for $36.95 and JB for $37 and Headphonics for $46

Also, not sure when this coupon expires, best guess is 31/01/2012, based on HUKD.

To clarify, these are £15.70 as per Cost £13.75 and Shipping £1.95. Exchange rate used was just the google search one

Enjoy

The Koss Porta-Pros are also a good option if not a better one.

Head Fi Review {C6}

The only reason I didn't mention them was because they weren't discounted from their normal price and $5 is still $5 more than the Sennheisers ;) The Koss ones aren't known for their noise isolation and hence not useful on public transport( use IEMs silly)

      They are pretty much the best you can get in this price range.

  • bentan77 on 28/01/2012 - 00:50

    This will go great with my $199 netbook, but you should also consider Koss PortaPros if you don't mind leakage or zero isolation.

    • cwongtech on 28/01/2012 - 00:52

      Hahaha, the $199 netbook comment again.
      Having personally experienced the HD201s, they offer unbelievable sound quality at this price.
      Haven't heard of the Koss PortaPros (well their sound quality anyway) but they're apparently quite good from reviews.

          I have friend who used to be working in he Hifi store said the KOSS would be a better buys for $27 dollars each including delivery. Some store still selling $100+. Anyway,

      • atlas on 28/01/2012 - 09:45

        Yep 28degrees. I think NAB Gold Banking Visa Debit might also be no fee.

        • dleonseng on 28/01/2012 - 09:49

          May I know if there are any drawbacks in getting a 28degrees card? Seems too good to be true

        • David Hasslehoff on 28/01/2012 - 11:05

          The only small drawback with 28degrees card is a $2 fee for payback at Aus Post, use Bpay or set up direct debit to avoid it.

        • atlas on 28/01/2012 - 12:00

          No points is only drawback.

        • salem on 29/01/2012 - 20:09

          I've found a few drawbacks with 28 degrees.

          1) The sign up process doesn't tell you how much your credit limit is that you're applying for. I had to call them up after I was accepted to find out what they'd given me.

          2) The process to get an increase to your limit was very vague (so as to prevent people gaming their system). So while I understand why they couldn't tell me specifics about how much I needed to spend/pay off to get a good 'transaction history' to back up a credit increase, it's been very frustrating.

          3) They don't have online instant transaction notifications. eg: with my st george, anytime my card makes a $20 or more transaction, I get an email. Very handy. No such feature with the 28 degrees card.

          4) If you miss a payment, you get a bunch of fees as well as interest. Recently they've started sending out reminder emails closer to the payment due date (in addition to the initial monthly statement), so hopefully that won't happen to me again.

          As far as convenience, and ease of use goes though, for buying stuff online in foreign currency it's been a pretty decent card. I'm hoping it'll be just as good when I go overseas later this year.

      • skywise on 28/01/2012 - 09:51

        thanks， i will probably just order from ozgameshop since my credit card will pose some exchange transaction fee on top of $23, nice deal btw.

      • psdillon on 28/01/2012 - 14:46
        +1

        Have you checked whether 28degrees are simply building the transaction fee into their exchange rate?

      • M on 28/01/2012 - 14:53

        Can't one just use PayPal and get them to do the currency conversion so you're debited/charged in AUD?

    Definately an awesome deal :) Plus from me

    Or as I like to say when I am using a decent pair of headphones 'It's like a party in my head and all my multiple personalities are invited' :P

    Nice price too, but I managed to buy mine from JB for $20 on sale a year ago.

    Can anyone tell me how much they got charged for conversion fees?

    • YasimKudomi on 28/01/2012 - 10:43

      $1 GBP = $1.45 AUS

      • Assassin151 on 28/01/2012 - 10:47

        i meant bank international conversion fees :p

        • syl on 28/01/2012 - 11:37

          Depends
          Master and visa card charges 3-4%
          So in this case, less than $1?

  • bonbon on 28/01/2012 - 10:56

    Anyone know how these headphones compare with Senn PX-100, I have px-100 and love the sound. Now thinking to get a second pair for spare.

      Yeah i'm using a set of these right now.. Bass is not great, BUT they do handle a bit of eq'ing, and that makes them average bass wise.

  • Ughhh on 28/01/2012 - 11:09

    @ unity1. I have a pretty big head and mine fit fine .They would easily fit a bigger head than mine .
    The only problem with them is the coating over the earpads a top have rotted away from all the sweating i do playing motor racing games ( with wheel) here in the tropics. They are better than the last set i had, can't remember what breed they were, where even the foam didn't last very long. I would get another set of the Sennheisers especially at that price.

    thinking of getting 2 of these.. with ozgamehsop thatll come to $48 with coupon and I'm assuming faster delivery… is worth the extra $1.50 over mymemory

    I actually find the HD201s pretty mediocre comfort wise. Pictures of them are deceptive in that they have the appearance of full-size circumaural headphones, when in fact the earcups are undersized.

    Sound quality is certainly good compared to other $20-40 headphones, especially closed-back ones, but this isn't one of those instances where you're getting something that performs almost as well as more expensive products for a fraction of the price (I'd rate them maybe 30% of the sound quality and comfort of a good pair of $200 headphones).

    Also note the HD201s are not particularly easy to drive - after I gifted a pair to my hard-of-hearing mother to assist with watching some DVDs which had a low audio level, they were actually insufficient at the TV's highest volume level. They have less volume than my 80 ohm DT250s on the same output, so something's a bit odd with the HD201's 24 ohm impedance figure, apparently.
