100pk Earbud Sponge Pads for $3 w/free s&h from Hong Kong

If you need a lot of earbud sponge pads and don’t need them to arrive immediately, a quartet of Hong Kong based sellers are selling 100 packs for $3 with free shipping from Hong Kong through Amazon.com. They have delivery estimates over there. Pay attention to the ratings profile of each seller, not just the price. These average 4.6 out of 5 based on 27 customer reviews.

These are earbud pads, not tips for in-ears. The product page has details and dimensions. I suppose these could also be handy in some arts and crafts projects 🙂 Speaking of which, there’s also a 100pk in red for $4.32 with free shipping from Asia. Only one seller, probably why the price is higher?

PS: the earbud looking thing on the left side of the first gallery picture there is actually the outer shell. Both earheads are like the one on the right side. It can be confusing if you never saw these before. No mic/remote.

Added to Massdrop today, with seven days left (as of blog-posting date) is the Creative Sound Blaster X7 Limited Edition DAC/amp that could go as low as $400 plus $10~ flat shipping. This is a do-it-all type of DAC/amp, serving speakers and headphones alike. It is not a dedicated headphone amp. One of the pictures over there shows all the connectors at the back (zoom in). It has both 1/4″ and 1/8″ headphone inputs on the front.

Here’s a seven minute video with Creative guy talking about it:

Optionally, you can add to your order the Creative E-MU XM7 Bookshelf Speakers for +$120 (they go for $270 on their own – eg amazon.com).
