70 bucks?? I remember Portas as a 30 or-so dollar headphones. That's the whole appeal.

Australian dollars, also including pads prices. Conversion rates moment.

I need to remember to take Freedom Dollar conversions into account on this site 🙂

It's okay, I assumed Singapore dollars and it wasn't far off at all! 😛

They are $40 US and up nowadays for used sets, and $60-$80 or more if new in the box. I know because I used to have some back in the day, was feeling nostalgic and after searching extensively on that auction site, decided they were not worth the current asking prices.

Modern dongle dac and retro headphones with my fav colour Yaxi pads is tickling me nicely.

Sound is about what I expected from the barely 70 dollar Portas. A bit less detailed than other cans I own but man I love the style, and the bass is indeed nice out of these!
