AKG K842 Master Reference and Beyerdynamic A20 head-amp and Slappa Case for $1499

Another bundle of three from Beach Camera through Amazon, this bundle is centered on the AKG K872 headphones, a closed-back over-ear four-figure studio-branded model. The two other items bundled with it are the Beyerdynamic A20 headphone-amp and the Slappa Hardbody PRO case.

As with some of the other bundles, some are not necessarily intended or ideally suited to be used together, they are more of interest to the headphone fan that has multiple items and likes to mix and match and experiment with.

Pioneer SE-MJ553BT-K On-Ears and Indigo head-amp and Slappa case for $70

It’s bundle up time now. You get three different products for $70. The new condition closed-back on-ear Pioneer SE-MJ553BT-K bluetooth headphones, the Indigo portable headphone-amp (which looks a lot like this M-Audio ~ they both for $30 on their own), the Slappa hardbody headphone case (goes for $20 on its own).

All these are by Beach Camera thru Amazon. It ships directly from Beach Camera (New Jersey) but if you are a Prime member, you get Prime-like shipping speed directly from Beach.

On the other hand, if you don’t want the portable headphone-amp, you can a different bundle for $10 more: it replaces the amp with an omega-shaped wood headphone stand.

PS: some of these bundles are value plays, you don’t necessarily have to (or you can’t) use all the items together, eg the portable head amp and a bluetooth-only headphone.
