Is the surrounding sound is good? It'll be really cool if there's a headphone in this price tag for home theater like sound..

Does importing will cost more than 5k? And eBay and Amazon are not reliable for buying headphones...that's why i'm hesitating

eBay is definitely not reliable for headphones... With Amazon, I have had good experience... :)

About importing, yeah, it may cost more than 5k... Depends on what you buy... :mrgreen:

Well, one of my friends recently imported the Grado SR-60i and they kick ass!!!
Amazon.com: Grado Prestige Series SR-60i Padded Headphones: Electronics

You can go for that, or it's elder sibling, the SR-80i depending on how much you want to spend... :-D
Amazon.com : Grado Prestige Series SR80i Stereo Headphone : Electronics


But, do remember, importing those means no warranty in India...


Edit:

Hey, you are in lots of luck... The Grado SR60i is available from Pristine Note!!! That means you are gonna get some kind of warranty too!!! :wink:

Grado SR60i [Grado SR60i] : Pristine Note, Shop audio, headphones, amplifier, DAC, hifi, mp3, audiophile products online store India

If you are gonna buy the Signature Acoustics C-12 from them, you might as well buy the SR60i from them too... That way you might even get a sweet deal of around 5k for the SR60i!!! :cool:

They have the SR80i listed too!!! :-D

Edit 2:

Just notice that both are out of stock in Pristine Note... Guess you are out of luck...

Mind you, if you are a serious basshead, then you are better off getting Audio Technica ATH-M50 then the Grados mentioned above... :)

Though it's gonna cost you around 10k!!! :mrgreen:
