Now shipping: V-Moda Crossfade Wireless (Bluetooth) for $310

The brand new V-Moda Crossfade Wireless (bluetooth) over-ear headphones are now in-stock and ready to ship to your ears for $310 with free shipping at Amazon by Amazon actual. So far they average 4.8 out of 5 but only based on 10 customer reviews.

Refurbished AKG K712 Pro Over-Ears for $220

The AKG K712 Pro open-back over-ear headphones are currently available in refurbished condition for $220 with free shipping by AudioWatt thru Amazon Warehouse Deals. It ships from California from AudioWatt, so it is not eligible for Prime shipping. It does not state manufacturer-refurbished, so it’s probably seller-refurbished… It averages 4.7 out of 5 based on 100+ customer reviews, and 35+ customer reviews…

Used Sennheiser HD 380 Pro for $112

The closed-back over-ear Sennheiser HD 380 headphones are currently available in “Used – Very Good” condition for around $112 by Amazon Warehouse Deals (AWD). There are multiple listings of this, so there is the possibility of further discounting based on the intrinsic tension between supply and demand. They also have multiple listings in “Used – Like New” condition for $119~. All these listings are by AWD actual, not marketplace sellers… So if interested, you may want to monitor that listing (I will also be paying attention to it to see if there’s further discounting)…

Tascam TH-MX2 Studio for $35 w/free s&h

Tascam has a number of studio-ish headphones out there. One of them are the closed-back over-ear TH-MX2 studio headphones, and they are currently down to $35 at Amazon by Amazon actual. This is exactly $35, which means everybody gets free shipping, not just Prime members. Or you can get them for $29~ in “Used – Very Good” condition through Warehouse Deals… They average 4.1 out of 5 based on 130+ customer reviews…

Parrot Zik (first gen) for $200 [updated]

The new condition, first generation, Parrot Zik headphones with many technobabble-features (Bluetooth, ANC, touch controls, custom app) is currently on sale for $200 in the Yellow-Gold color scheme by marketplace sellers at Amazon.com.

This offer ended: That color-scheme may be hard to swallow for many, so if you prefer the more conventional black-gold color scheme, that goes for $250 by Best Buy thru eBay.

Running Armband for today’s flagships with Headphone Out Hole for $8

Running armbands for smartphones are handy. Not just for running, but also when you are around the home or office and you don’t want to stick the phone/DAP in your pocket. This new AmazonBasics Running Armband is big enough to fit the latest iPhone 6S and Galaxy S6 (even their names are similar!) and other phones of similar size. One thing to consider if you have other phones is the location of the headphone out hole, it is on the top corner (left or right depending on how you are facing it). This is on sale for $8 at Amazon.

Refurbished Shure SRH-240A Over Ears for $32

The Shure SRH 240A is often the forgotten member of their studio line-up, but if you are interested in it, you can get it in refurbished condition for $32 by Brainstorm thru Amazon. It does not specify, so it is probably seller-refurbished. These are closed-back over-ears with non-detachable cables… The usual Amazon free shipping terms apply (Prime or $35+)…
