Also part of the BuyDig Clearance sale, coupon code CLOSEOUT15 gets you the BeyerDynamic T70P headphones with two free items (Beyerdynamic DTX 501p lightweight on-ears, and Belkin audio splitter) for $425 with free shipping.
The rest of the models eligible for the aforementioned 15% off limited time coupon are:
* 15 headphones
* 8 earphones
* some are open-box, other are new condition
BuyDig.com has a new limited time coupon, CLOSEOUT15 gets you 15% off the current prices of their Clearance Sales. Among those, you can get the new condition straight cable Audio-Technica ATH-M50 closed-back over-ear headphones for $106~ with free shipping.
NOTE: this is the older model, “M50”, not to be confused with the latest model, the “M50x”.
The HRT MicroStreamer portable DAC goes for $170 in new condition, but if you want to save, you can get it in “Used – Like New” condition for $130 by Genco Deals (100%, 23K+ ratings) through Amazon Warehouse Deals. This is fulfilled by Amazon, so you get free 2-day shipping if you are a Prime member. The listing from Genco says this comes with all accessories, it is tested and repackaged, but the box will show wear and may be “distressed”. Any psychologists on Headfi offering stress therapy for distressed boxes? Perhaps a $500 cable can help it cheer up? 😉
Disposable price without totally disposable sound perhaps, the very lightweight on-ear Koss KPH7K in the black color scheme are now down to $2.94 per pair, in new condition, at Amazon by Amazon actual. Limit five per customer. The only catch is that these too are part of the Amazon Add-On program, so you’d need a $25+ purchase (otherwise the shopping cart won’t let you buy them, even if you are a Prime member).
The other colors go for $4 to $7 (total of six color schemes). As a group, they average 3.9 out of 5 based on 450+ customer reviews.
UPDATE: Amazon has a created a page featuring a number of sub-$20 headphones/earphones.
The earpods (that are totally not cloned after the Apple earpods) that Samsung includes with their Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge smartphones (time flies so fast, these are already “previous generation” phones, it’s crazy, but I’m digressing), are also available on their own, in non-retail packaging, going for $7 per pair at Amazon.com. That’s Amazon’s own price, but they have it as an Add-On item, so you’d need a $25+ order in order to get it.
On the other hand, a couple of marketplace sellers over there are offering it for $7.50~ with free shipping, both of them shipping from somewhere in the State of New York. These earpods average 3.8 out of 5 based on 360+ customer reviews.
The Audioengine D1 24-bit DAC is currently available in “Used – Good” condition for $131 by Amazon Warehouse Deals. Or if you page down further down over there, you will find an Open Box “Used – Like New” offer for $139 by Gramophone with full warranty (authorized dealers, ships from Maryland).
The Shure SRH 440 closed-back over-ears were on many “$100 headphone recommendation lists” before the explosion of new manufacturers and models and options. As such, they don’t have modern luxuries (mic/remote), they are after all studio headphones. You can get them in “Used – Very Good” condition for $82~ by Amazon Warehouse Deals actual. There are lower prices by recently launched marketplace sellers (starting at $62 shipped), which is typically a high/higher risk purchase. So it’s up to you to decide where to draw the line in terms of risk.
If you are looking for a quality and nice professional looking headphone carrying pouch (soft, not hard), the Shure HPACP1 is a great value at $7, sold and shipped by Amazon actual. You can buy as many as you like. They fit many on-ears, and many non-monster-size over-ears, partially depending on whether they have a detachable cable or whether they fold in some way.
Regardless, this is a solid buy. I’ve had one for two years and has no issues or wear. I need to add it to the list of items to review, which keeps getting longer, and the longer it gets, the fewer the reviews that come out 🙂
Free 2-day shipping for Prime members or the usual $35+ free super-saver-shipping for non-Primes.
On the used front, the Direct Sound EX29 over-ears with their rectangular earcups are available in “Used – Good” condition for $79~ or “Used – Very Good” for $84~ or “Used – Like New” for $89~ by Amazon Warehouse Deals. There are multiple listings there, so there’s a chance price pressure may bring prices further down in the future. They average 3.8 out of 5 based on 110+ customer reviews.
On the fashion front, Klipsch unapologetically named their latest over-ears “Status”, and these are available in new condition for $100 with free shipping with a limit of five per customer by BuyDig on eBay.
