Used Beyerdynamic T1 (2nd Gen) for $659

Used Sennheiser HD 598 CS for $67

There are multiple listings of this condition, so time could put price-pressure on them.

Used Bowers & Wilkins C5 S2 In-Ears for $82

The Bowers & Wilkins C5 S2 In-Ears go for $150 in new condition at reputable dealers, but if you are comfortable with used condition earphones, and/or you don’t mind playing the waiting game, there are multiple listings of thees by Amazon Warehouse Deals actual with “Used – Good” being the price vanguard at $82, while a handful of “Used – Very Good” are available for $87~. Time may force prices to go down since there are multiple listings but that’s only one of the factors that seem to decide prices in the organized chaos that is Amazon 🙂

Chromecast Audio for $30

The lowest price of the Chromecast Audio at recognizable sellers was $25, so if you don’t need it right away, you can always wait for future sales. But if you need it right away, you can get it for $30 at the Staples website and their B&M stores (YMMV on availability – you can check on their website). Staples has a variety of ways to get additional discounts, their monthly rewards, various coupons (some may be restricting specific brands, so check terms/conditions), or you can redeem a $25 Staples electronic (or plastic) gift card for $20 with Discover Cashback.

We have a Text and Pictures Unboxing of this right here. The promised review and tips and tricks posts have not materialized yet 🙂 [that’s a nice euphemism when you don’t finish something 🙂 ]

PS: non-headphone sales are rounded-up in a permanent post, the Audio Deals round-up.
