Massdrop: Audio Technica M50x $127 shipped, their Velour Earpads $22 shipped

If you missed Monday’s Audio Technica ATM-50x lightning deal for $120, it is back on sale, but for slightly more, going for $127 shipped by members-only Massdrop. Unlike Amazon’s deal that lasts four hours, the Massdrop offer is good for seven days (from blog-posting date). To coincide with this sale, the ATH-M50x Velour Earpads are offered separately for $22 shipped. Both are fully unlocked (aka, their lowest prices possible under this offer).

As perhaps a budget semi-alternative, they also offer the Superlux HD668B semi-open headphones for $38~ shipped. These are not fully unlocked as of the time of writing. They average 4.4 out of 5 based on 320+ customer reviews at amazon.com.
