An alternative Open Back Over Ear on sale: the Beyerdynamic Amiron Home (wired version) from Buydig for $300 using the coupon code: HOME

This is the lowest I have seen on a new pair.

Thanks. I really like Roon for its whole home Tidal + Local files integration. So I will keep it. But on my CXA80 system, which is attached to the TV, I only have CC tv and not CC audio, and they don't play that well together (there is delay, from 2 different products). So if I play to that system (actually my best one, with Definitive Tech Mythos ST) I don't try to also go to cast groups elsewhere in the home, and so my other part of my question still has me wondering: will I hear any difference between the CXN and the CC-TV, given that the DAC would be the same for both (the internal one to the CXA80)?

I wouldn't know if you'll hear any difference, can't really tell you how it will work to be honest since I don't have the same setup.

Is it the somehow the same as HE400i?

With "structural improvements": steel headband, "protein" leather, and "exclusive" color.

The Sabaj D5 is 9% off on AliExpress, although it appears the only place it's shipping from is the U.S., so it may not be a good option for non-U.S. customers.

And we're getting close to 11/11 so it might be worth waiting to see if there's a better price then.

The best Sabaj D5 price so far was about sub-Us$400/-.

It might drop to that range come 11/11 sale.
But do be prepared for a long wait for deliveries when that comes along though.

Yes! And I believe it to be better (I don't have the HE400i). See Tyll's comments:

For $130, I think it is a no brainer!

Some say distortion is a bit more audible with the HE4xx. Don't know if I should believe it.

That's quite an offer. For now I'll wait for the ASR review and what the presumable sale price will be on the 11th of nov. Some reviewers on Head-fi.org where quite happy with their purchase of the DX7Pro.

If it helps at all ...

The FR and THD measurements for the HE4XX (from Head-Fi via Drop: you can see the measurements at the bottom.)

The FR and THD for the HE-400i (from RTings.)

Unfortunately the discount is not applicable for EU delivery it seems.
The EU drop is listed at 160€ as far as I can tell.

If you go through Gizmodo (Kinja Deals) it looks like the Sennheiser HD 6XX headphones are USD $25 off on Drop. However, that $25 appears to be a Drop credit and not a straight discount.

Valid until Oct 24, 2019.

I said it and I stand by it. Still, these are spectacular for that price. They are excellent as an entry level planars.
