Bowers and Wilkins P5

I found a pair, new open box, on craigslist for 50$.

How are they?
I could always resell them, but I want to know if they are any good before buying them.

Yay more deals! :D 

 

I haven't owned them but tried them before for a very short period of time, as I remember for they sounded pretty good and not super bass heavy like some others, but was quite pricey from the original price tag.

you littler lucker, that is a really good deal for them. They are pretty good headphones and maybe if I remember correctly a bit natural in their sound signature.
