Duggeh Posted November 15, 2007 Report Posted November 15, 2007 ?140 and rising for a set of Micro Seiki electrostatics. Some people are clearly mad. I can only hope that Bidder 5 is a shill to get the price up and that the seller ends up paying ending fees for Bidder 5s winning bid. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=190172292479&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=009
milkpowder Posted November 16, 2007 Report Posted November 16, 2007 UK'ers are just too used to overpaying for goods they loose their sanity... I just don't understand why people go crazy over vintage, probably poor-sounding non-dynamic headphones over here. I sold a pair of SR-404 for more than it would cost to buy a brand new one. Go figure Oh well, all the better for those of us who might be selling gear on eBay

In any case, a bit expensive but not extreme by european standards.I've seen worse.
spritzer Posted November 17, 2007 Report Posted November 17, 2007 300$ is a bit on the high side... Maybe I should sell mine... Are these rebranded Stax SR-X? In any case, a bit expensive but not extreme by european standards.I've seen worse. Micro Seiki made their own phones and even made an OEM version for Infinity. They are pretty different from almost any other phone I've seen but they can be a bitch to get working again as they all need new diaphragms.
milkpowder Posted November 17, 2007 Report Posted November 17, 2007 Maybe they are collectable, but apart from that, why would you want a pair? Do they actually sound good?
spritzer Posted November 17, 2007 Report Posted November 17, 2007 Mine are so far from stock as I used them to test different diaphragms but they do sound ok for what they are but I would never pay more then what a SR-5 is going for these days.
