FS: Philips Fidelio X1 Headphone (Two Day Sale)

I've upgraded to the newer X2 so I've got a pair of Fidelio X1 for sale. I posted about these a few times here and am linking the thread below, but these are IMO unbeatable for the price I'm selling if you can do an open headphone.

Mine are in great shape with the original box and accessories.

$150 SHIPPED, local pickup is fine but you guys will have to come to me because we're pressing to get everything packed in time for the move.

I'm packing for the move and am looking for a quick sale. I'll have this out for a couple more days then it will get put in a box and will go up for sale in a few weeks when we get around to unpacking the storage boxes.

    I'll second that these are awesome headphones. If you're on the fence don't let the brand name fool you!

    @nbrowser These. Now. Do it! :p

    @AsSiMiLaTeD Have you done a write up comparing 1's and 2's? Having the X1's I'd be interested in a write up involving a few different amplification choices. Maybe AVR, portable player, and headphone amp.
