AKG K7XX Red Edition for $200 at Massdrop

The RED is here! No, not the Chevelle song but the red color scheme of the open-back over-ear AKG K7XX Massdrop Red Edition headphones. They are going for $200 with free shipping, and a 2-year warranty from AKG, since they are built are a co-project between AKG and Massdrop.

These will ship blazing fast by Massdrop standards, within two business days after purchase. The listing opens and closes daily, so it can work through the Massdrop system of “drops”.

Sennheiser GSP 300 Gaming Headset for $85

The black and blue color scheme of the Sennheiser GSP 300 Gaming Headsets is currently on sale for $85 with free shipping at Amazon by Amazon actual. The other options go for more. This looks like an automated price-bot price-match of marketplace sellers, so expiration date is unknown.

Audeze LCD-2 sale has a new low: $650 [two options]

Google’s USB-C to 3.5mm adapter drops to $9

Google triggered Headphone Jack Crisis II and not only that, it’s trying to out-do Apple, outpricing the $9 lightning connector with their own $20 USB-C to 3.5mm adapter out of the gate. But apparently they got enough flack for it that they lowered the price to Apple’s level.

As of the time of writing, the official Google USB-C to 3.5mm adapter is down to $9 at the official Google Store.

Or if you prefer a headphone jack you can avoid all the headphones without one. There are many great choices out there, and you can send the tone-deaf manufacturers a message. Look at the list of Android companies without a headphone jack so far, they are all struggling 🙂
