we find good deals for you!
On the folding closed-back over/on-ears for portable use fornt, the new condition Panasonic RP-HF300M in three color schemes (white, black, blue) are on sale for $22.50 per pair at Amazon by Amazon actual where they average 4.2 out of 5 with nearly 150 customer reviews.
NOTE: the product description over there calls them “over ears” but they look more on-ears in the pictures. I can’t tell deterministically, so I am calling them “over/on-ears”.
More discounting on the Beyerdynamic front, this time it is the new condition closed-back on-ear Beyerdynamic T51i going for $199 with free shipping at Amazon by Amazon actual by a marketplace seller [update on 10/8/16]
Speaking of BeyerD, their Custom Street On-Ears have dropped to $64~ in the white color. The black color scheme jumped to $80. Price updated 10/8/16 here… These I got on an impulse buy a couple of weeks ago, if you are curious about them, here is the Text and Pictures Unboxing and an on-going and developing Review Diary. Spoiler alert: the next post in the Review Diary has been posted, will be it is “Bass Slider vs Blur’s Magic Whip” 🙂
If you need to get the Sennheiser HD 650 yesterday, they are currently on sale for $339 with free shipping at Amazon by Amazon actual. If you don’t need them right away, you can probably wait for the holiday shopping season for better deals.
UPDATE: Jeff points out in the comments this is on sale for GBP 232 in the Amazon UK store if you sign up for a free UK Prime Trial. Based on the 10/7/16 exchange rate, this comes out to $289 US.
On the budget side of semi-open studio-ish headphones, Adorama has a couple of Samson models on sale again. The semi-open SR-850 goes for $25, while the closed SR-950 goes for $30. When you click on calculate shipping, you get free shipping if you select the slowest shipping method available.
PS: I picked up the SR-850 on a previous sale, but haven’t used it yet, I have to do the unboxing post before that happens. Spoiler alert: you just get the headphones in a cardboard box, one of the reasons these headphones are priced at half-AKG prices 🙂

Color choices are available at checkout, and pictures aplenty of the kits are shown over there. Shipment is estimated to be late October 2016.
This offer was cancelled before it went live. Since Amazon opened the Lightning Deals to the marketplace vendors, cancellations are more frequent than they used to be…
