With condition unknown, US$125 looks like a strong deal against your recent comp set: it sits below the US$126 25th percentile and well under the US$139 median, so this is priced on the buyer-friendly side. For a Drop THX AAA 789, that’s a healthy entry point rather than a stretch.
It’s still a respected pick because the THX AAA 789 is known for very clean, powerful, low-noise headphone drive and plenty of headroom for demanding cans. At this price, the upside is solid if it’s fully functional and complete; I’d mainly confirm power-on stability, balanced and single-ended outputs, and whether the original PSU and packaging are included.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Drop originated as Massdrop in San Francisco in 2012, pioneering a community-driven model that aggregated enthusiast demand to source and develop exclusive products directly from manufacturers. By bypassing traditional retail chains, it built a loyal following of over 7 million members through limited-time "drops" of unique gear, earning acclaim for delivering hard-to-find items at competitive prices. The brand rebranded to Drop in 2019, expanding into its own designs like the Drop SHIFT mechanical keyboard and wireless headphones, often in collaboration with names such as Sennheiser for audiophile-grade audio.
In the hi-fi realm, Drop specialized in headphones, DACs, amplifiers, and cables, alongside mechanical keyboards and gaming peripherals, with audio as a flagship category. Its approach emphasized user feedback to refine products, yielding sought-after collabs like the Massdrop x Sennheiser line, blending accessibility with performance for enthusiasts.
Drop held a niche position as a disruptor in the mid-tier market, appealing to savvy buyers seeking value-driven, community-vetted hi-fi without high-end premiums. Acquired by Corsair in 2023, it shifted toward gaming hardware before shuttering its core operations in March 2025, marking the end of an era for direct-to-consumer audio innovation.
