(UK) Creative Store massive sales

Aurvana Platinum reduced from £249 to £139

Aurvana Live 2 reduced from £99.99 to £69.99

 

I ordered the Live 2 ones, and they had an additional offer of a 600 ohm headphone amp reduced to £25.

 

Lots more sales than just those two things, just about everything is reduced:

Actually I just cancelled the Live 2's and ordered the Platinums instead. Much better with a larger reduction, and wireless bluetooth headphones, and I've always wanted wireless ones. Additional offer with them is Creative's bluetooth dongle for £15, also got those to ensure compatibility. Didnt need the amp anyway as my motherboard has one built in.

 

Pretty sure my bank account is depleted now and Paypal are gonna need me to restore my balance.

Linus is my fetish.

eww

I have them on my head now and they sound amazing, whats wrong with them? Well, I agree the colour is eww, but for £139.99 they sound great. Vastly better improvement over my crappy third time broken Asus Strix headset.

Against 
Uncomfortable for long use
Lethargic sounding
Lack clarity
Thick bass
Bulkier than most Bluetooth rivals

Glad you are happy though :) 

 

I mean, some people like certain sound signatures so dont always listen to reviews

Yes but those reviews are based on the full price at £250. So 3 stars at £250 = max stars at £140!

 

Music has never sounded better, but then thats mostly cos I havnt had headphones this good ever before.
