Updated on 29 June, 2017, 10:00am: Massdrop has made some amendments to this drop. Most importantly, the price will drop to US$199.99 once 5,000 orders are reached. At the time of writing, it already has. In addition, the number of units available in this drop has been increased to 11,500 and members will be able to buy up to three pairs. The drop will run for two more days.

Originally published on 21 June, 2017:-

As part of Massdrop's 5-year anniversary, they are making the Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 6XX available again.

The date and time that you want to take note of are as follows: 26 June, 6am Pacific Time.

That translates to 26 June, 9pm local time. You're welcome.

Unfortunately, the lowest price possible for this drop this time round is US$249.99. It was just US$199.99 the last time. But even with the US$50 hike, the Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 6XX still represents good value. 

If you are unfamiliar with the HD 6XX, the short story is that it is essentially a more affordable version of the legendary Sennheiser HD 650.

The first drop, back in November last year, was so popular that it brought down Massdrop's payment servers and sold out in just two hours.

This drop will see 7,500 units up for grabs. However, Massdrop is giving members who missed out on the original launch of the HD 6XX first dibs.

Members who reached the checkout page during the last drop but failed to complete the transaction will be given first dibs on this second run of Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 6XX headphones. This special offer will commence on 25 June, 12pm Pacific Time.

Local readers who qualify for this "first dibs" will probably have received their emails by now. I have. But more importantly, this "first dibs" drop starts 26 June, 3am local time

Thereafter, everyone else can join the drop when it goes live at 26 June, 6pm Pacific Time.

Another important thing to note is that Singapore is not one of the countries that Massdrop will be shipping to for this drop, so it would be necessary to use a forwarder to get the headphones to Singapore.

It's a bit of a hassle, but well worth it if you are in the market for a pair of excellent headphones under S$1,000.

Happy shopping.
