Today only. A good pair of headphones, obviously not the greatest, but still really good. I actually use these as my daily drivers and have been very happy with them over the past year I've had them. I'm picking up a backup pair.

Wow that's a good deal. Been using one for a couple of years now and I don't feel the need to replace it. Can't say how it performs though vs the higher tier since the only pair of cans that I've used aside from this one is the HD201 and it's quite an upgrade btw. Still this is definitely a steal for the price.

I have the 419's, and they are Really nice, i beleive that the 439 are a step up, but either way theyre Sennheisers, I WOULD recommend, If they are anything like mine, to ALSO order THIS .... and the extended warranty for ADH (accidental damage). just to be safe, its like $8, and its WELL worth it, because if they break for ANY reason, you'll get 90% of Your money backhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA9083C37333

That is what I like about the HD439, the cable is replaceable, and it comes with two cables. One is 4ft and the other is 10ft.

I do love Sennheisers as a general rule.. excellent quality, excellent sound...

This price would put it in competition with the Superluxe 668B.
Looks like these are going to be considerably more bassy (and actually quite nicely done in the low end), but not as detailed and bright. Should be able to EQ the highs back in though as they don't have far to go.
