Wow, $500 earbuds. Who is buying these things?

I didn't realize they were allowing internet access from mental institutions these days. They won't sell too many of these otherwise. You could get a top of the line 5.1 setup for this money.

Not me.

And I hear buy.com sucks as well.

Audiophiles. There are plenty of headphone, speaker, and amp setups costing several times this amount. As for most things, if you are passionate about something cost is of little consequence.
