$200 isn't the actual market price for the HD555. You can get a pair from Amazon (US) for $85.
If you've only listened to your music with cheap earbuds, you haven't truly heard your music. Rediscovering your existing music collection, particularly if it's high-bitrate compressed or lossless, is a joy. Well worth the money if you enjoy music at all.
- Qz 16y agoI agree on them being worth it. That said, the best sounding headphones I've head (better than my HD 555's) were some 30 dollar Sony G74 (or something) 'street' headphones that they don't make anymore. The trade-off was that they were easily the most uncomfortable headphones ever devised. It was literally too painful to wear them for extended amounts of time.
- teamonkey 16y agoThe annoying thing is when you buy a good pair of headphones and start to hear the distortion in your old low-bitrate music.
