My wife ships to family in Russia a lot, or did, the last year or so has been rough. Not only Russia, problems shipping to UK as well. I will spare you our horror stories. So first question before even talking headphones, who can ship what and will it get there? You might have better luck buying new for this reason alone.
Choosing and buying headphones
Dear.
My name is Sergiy.I am from Ukraine.
Help me choose full-size headphones for the player Astell&Kern Kann Alpha up to 1000$.There are two main requirements for headphones: comfort and sound quality.
It is possible to buy headphones for www.audiogon.com and send this item to my friend in USA who will send it to me then? Is it possible?
Possible options:
1. Denon AH-D7200 725$
2. Dan Clark Audio Aeon 2 575$
3. Focal Elear 550$
Or it is better not to risk it and buy new ones from the store.( https://audio46.com/ ,https://www.moon-audio.com/ )
Best Regards

1.Connect via cable only 2.Universal desirable: both for home and for the street 3.Listened Fostex TH-900 ,MrSpeakers AEON Flow, beyerdynamic dt 1990 pro, ibasso sr2, Audeze LCD-1 .Of these models, I liked the fit on the head and sound the most MrSpeakers AEON Flow.I will try to listen to it soon HiFiMAN Ananda. At the moment I own Audio-Technica ATH-ESW9 but their huge disadvantage is inconvenience - you won't listen to music for a long time. Music I listen to: New Age / Ambient / Electronic, Blues-Rock, Folk-Rock, Melodic Hard Rock and more. My own sister lives near Baltimore. Send to her address. And then she will send me Ukraine. I have not yet decided where to buy the headphones. I bought the Astell & Kern KANN Alpha player at www.moon-audio.com Best Regards |
You should do headphone research and buys and sell of headphone gear on Head-fi.com. Last month I posted ads on Head-fi for my Meze Empy and Benchmark HPA4. The Empy went to a buyer in Canada and the HPA4 went to Paris, France. I am in the USA. For the HPA4 we used the payment system called WISE. PayPal was a pain when it came to foreign transactions. If you buy used this maybe helpful. Wise, Formerly TransferWise: Online Money Transfers | International Banking Features |
I've heard those 3 headphones before. I will say that each one is unique in terms of sound. If you are spending good money (whatever that amount is) to you, then you may want to audition the headphones in question at a shop before you buy. I can't tell you how many times friends of mine have been disappointed with their headphones. In the end, we listened to headphones together and they were able to make the right decision. |
