Sennheiser HD 600 + Beyerdynamic DT 990 PRO (250 ohm) + Audio Technica M30x for $400

Earlier in the week, we mentioned Amazon’s crazy HD 650 bundles. But the HD 600 has its own crazy bundles as well. We start with a three headphone bundle (you are reading right!) offered for $400. For that, you get, in new condition, the following headphones:

  • Sennheiser HD 600 open-back over-ear open-ears
  • Beyerdynamic DT-990 PRO (250 ohm) open-back over-ear
  • Audio-Technica ATH-M30x closed-back over-ear

Given that the first two are 300 and 250 ohm respectively, amping is perhaps the way to make the most of these. Both have been around for a while and there are countless forum threads talking about amping options for these.

There are no coupons, no rebates. You just add the bundle to the shopping cart and proceed to checkout as usual and that’s it.

Sennheiser HD 600 + $150 Gift Card for $400 total

This is not a bad deal at all. For $400, Amazon bundles the new condition open-back over-ear Sennheiser HD 600 headphones and a $150 Amazon Gift Card (plastic gift card delivered by mail). That puts the headphone at $250 since you can use the gift card for its face value or even sell/trade it for close to that amount. Or hand it off to someone else as a holiday gift. No coupons, no rebates, just add to cart and checkout.

TIP: in the remote chance the gift card arrives before the headphones ship, you may be able to apply the value of the gift card towards the purchase. This rarely happens, in the lightning strikes neighborhood.
