Title: question: best BeyerDynamic MC930 kit price/supplier
Post by: illconditioned on July 19, 2007, 01:21:32 PM
Hey, I tried to buy the CK930, an "active" version of the the 930's but they were "backordered".  Only waited two months to find this out.  Argh!

OK, I want to buy the standard MC930 stereo kit.  Who has purchased this recently, and for what price?  PM is fine.  I called SonicSense and was quoted $999, then $899, but this is too high still.  Maybe noone will match the rumoured B&H price anymore, but I want something a little better.

Thanks,
  Richard

I believe Sweetwater matches the B&H price.

The actives are not actually in production yet, hence Richard getting the backorder.  Supposedly, they will be in production before the end of the year.  There has been discussion of this in the team beyer thread.

A little over a month ago, I had a quote from Full Compass for $700 I believe.

That was the best I could find when I was considering a set.

Try calling them and saying your friend was quoted that price...I bet they will match it.
