Sennheiser Urbanite

Just bought myself Sennheiser Urbanite on ear for 99.95 from Arnotts, Dublin.

There are two more pairs of Android left. The Apple version was available too I think. And the XL is down to 149.95 too.

By what witchcraft did you manage to achieve that? They're 161.99 on their website. €139 in Harvey Norman seems to be the lowest apart from that.

They were marked at 99.95 on the shelf. The till showed 139.99 with the discount applied manually I think.

Receipt attached. The phones sound amazing. Have been wanting to buy these since listening them first last December when they were priced at 179.

Receipt says on ear not over ear. On ear are cheaper by about 40 quid

That's true, but the on ear are stop 161e on the website. The over ears are the XL at 201e on the website

Similar price on Amazon at the minute. Still can't post a link, but £76.50 (so about €106.50).

Sounds like a good deal, good reviews on Amazon too.

Guys, just to let you know that it is also quite cheaper on Amazon 76 pounds - if anyone interested

On ear urbanites are €99 in Xtra Vision at the moment too.

Have to say I bought the XL's nearly a year ago and thought they were terrible. I love Sennheisers usually but found the Urbanites muddy and lacked clarity. Also leaked sound if considering high volumes in an office.

I have never listened the XL model so can't compare but really really like these. The bass is slightly heavy on them but nothing stupid. Build quality is excellent with really nice alloy mechanism for size adjustments.

I compared these to Momentum on ears and they seem somewhat clearer. Can't comment on sound leakage but they are quite well insulated from outside noises.

I picked up a pair today and I'm really impressed with them. Great price.
