Here, we cover headphones big and small, from single figures to five figures. All is welcome. Which is why I love juxtapositions of these kind: a few posts after mentioning the $2500 Pioneer Masters, we have an $8 Pioneer headphone shipped! The closed-back on-ear Pioneer SE-MJ512-K goes for $8 with free shipping. The seller is “audio video sales guy” through Amazon. This ships directly from them. According to the seller description over there, their parent company is a single store Southern California location.

This has two separate listings at Amazon. Amazon’s own price is $201~, while in a separate listing East-Coast store chain Electronics Expo offers it for $190 with the order fulfilled by Amazon, so it is Prime eligible.
