got new headphones

[RTBARCHIVE]

Hey,I got new headphones that sold for $300 for just $30. It says, "A40 +MIXAMP PRO" on the box

Are these any good? Besides them being sold for originally $300, of course.

Was it on sale?

yea

no

I got them from my neighbour's yard sale, he apparently didn't need them because it requires an optical cord.
It came in the condition that you would find off the shelf.

yes

high cost does not always mean high quality

that's why I'm asking

[Ipquarx]

yes

Well it seems like according to the reviews they're at least decent quality, I think you got a pretty good deal for $30.

[carolcat]

from the brief look i did online, they've got pretty good reviews

[sorrel]

I've heard that Astros were pretty good.

um my computer doesn't have an optical port either and it was built 2 weeks ago

you may need to get an expansion card or something for that stuff, i'd never even heard of optical ports until now

I hope you know that I have a motherboard that supports anything below an Intel Celeron 440. Will it still work?
