A Beyerdynamic T50P second hand, should I do it?

[admin_exported]

Hi all.

I came from a bose On ear to currently using Senheiser HD202.

Now I can buy a used ( In the advertisment it says that it is only used for 10 hours) for €180.

Is it a steal? Is it as What Hifi says a very good headphone and, is it better then the Bose or my current Senheiser?

Or would it be better to buy the B & W P5, I do have got the Zeppelin Mini and love it.

I would appreciate oppinions.

Thank you

Best regards.

Jules

Headphones are like any other piece of audio equipement: you need to listen to it to find out if you like it or not.

And for that price, it could be a steal.
If the phones were really only used for about 10hrs, the coils "might" not have settled in completely, so the sound "might" still change a bit.

That's the problem with 2nd hand. You never know if it's all true. And with lots of fake headphones going around lately...
I don't know. Just make sure you test the T50P very well with your own equipement and compare it directly to the Bose and Senheiser you already have.

Read the reviews describing the problems with the original versions of the T50p, and how they changed the headband and earpads. That may be relevant.
