They are shipping to the [US for $150](https://www.amazon.co.uk/Philips-X2-Headphones-Over-Ear-Cushions/dp/B00MRUPSHQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8\u0026amp;qid=1503663380\u0026amp;sr=8-1\u0026amp;keywords=fidelity+x2).\r\n\r\n\r\nThe X2 doesn't normally need an amp.  The least expensive amp/DAC  I would recommend would be the Fiio E10k, which pushes past your budget limit.\r\n\r\nIf you want other options, look at the DT 770 Pro (80 ohms) or the Beyerdynamic Custom Studio.  Both closed back, but not bad for gaming.  These might need that Fiio.  And the HD 598 SR would be a good gaming set that wouldn't normally need an amp.\r\n","subreddit_name":"headphones","author":"Kerry56"},{"body":"I wonder the same,\r\namazon germany has one version (X2/00) on sale currently [click](https://www.amazon.de/Philips-Fidelio-X2-HiFi-Kopfh%C3%B6rer-OverEar/dp/B00MRUPSHQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8\u0026amp;qid=1500527142\u0026amp;sr=8-1\u0026amp;keywords=fidelio+x2)\r\n\r\nWould be a shame if this is the old batch, X2HR (new pads and headband) are just unreasonable more pricey.\r\n","subreddit_name":"headphones","author":"daL1ra"},{"body":"Im looking at getting the [Philips fidelio x2](https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00MRUPSHQ/ref=twister_B071S8NYWW?_encoding=UTF8\u0026amp;psc=1) because they seem to be a really good price. However i've heard that the quality tanked when they changed manufacturer. I can't find any reliable information on if there still any good so does anyone here own a pay that was brought after the change? Also, does anyone know the difference between the x2's and the x2hr's? Thanks","subreddit_name":"headphones","author":"oppositetoup"},{"body":"Definitely the K7XX. They are extremely comfy especially compared to the 900x in my experience. They sound pretty similar to DT880s but with less of a treble spike. They have an enormous soundstage as well. For $200 its a great value. The X2 that was suggested above is also a great pick, and are on sale for cheaper than the K7XX on [Amazon UK](https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00MRUPSHQ/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_7RtTAbETYTQXB)","subreddit_name":"headphones","author":"IceDevilGray-Sama"},{"body":"I really like how my X2s look and I'm still completely satisfied with the sound they produce, but mine are starting to sort of trashy after 2 years of owning them, all the paint and stuff is just starting to wear off around the edges.
