Super-Spy · 1 Oct 2017 at 20:07

OK, googled the rainforest but as you can imagine, not much luck even with appending the word headphones !

Any pointers ?

The Large river in Brazil surrounded by the world's largest rain forest

Spot on, those were the type of results I was getting !

Add headphones and you get some rainforest song on spotify

AMAZON!!!

I thought you were been sarcastic !

So it is a reseller over in Brazil

No, Amazon UK - as I said above, the prices are full retail at the moment, you need to keep checking to see if the price comes back down

Thanks for your help.

I looked on camelcamel and can't see the two listings on the 'rainforest' ever dropping that low.

Am I looking at the wrong item ?

I searched for HE400i and it came up with two listings.

rids57 · 2 Oct 2017 at 10:18

I bought my pair on there for £180 on the 22nd of September, so if camelcamel is saying otherwise it's wrong

I bought a pair on the 29th September, they do pop up you just need to keep looking everyday. I just searched for Hifiman HE-400i and bookmarked the Amazon search page.

In Amazons infinite wisdom, they shipped mine without a packing box, so I have a shipping label stuck to my box!

Mine came in the outer HiFiMan cardboard box, so while it was slightly protected (no padding), anyone could see what was inside because it has all the details on the outer box - it's a miracle it got as far as me - solution is to say it's a gift during the ordering process, then it will get put in a bigger box with padding.

Anyone wanting them, they are back on sale at £180 again so jump in quick

Beat me to it! Just ordered a pair. Currently own Philips X1, Beyerdynamic DT150 and Sennheiser HD650 among others so am intrigued and excited to hear the HE400i's.

rids57 · 3 Oct 2017 at 03:58

they've barely been off my head since I got them on the 23rd of Sept - I love my HD650s but everything sounds snappier, more detailed and punchier with these - currently listening to Thriller and it sounds incredible.

I'm starting to regret picking free delivery, up to 7 days till I get mine.
Also got to wait for Magni 3 stock!

rids57 · 3 Oct 2017 at 04:30

I'm too impatient to wait that long, I ordered on the Friday and they got here Saturday morning for an extra £5 - bargain

Super-Spy · 3 Oct 2017 at 07:04

Thanks guys. What's Magni 3 ?!

A Schiit headphone amp. They are cheap but very good quality and sound.

rids57 · 3 Oct 2017 at 15:43

They are still going for £180 if anyone is interested in getting a pair
