Surprise! When you click on the thing to “add to cart”, the new condition blue color scheme of the closed-back over-ear Beats Studio 3 Wireless (latest model; bluetooth with ANC) drops to $250 at Abt Electronics. The other two colors are at the starting price of $350. I have no clue how long this will last.

Used Fiio K5 DAC/amp with built-in Dock for $86
The new condition Fiio K5 DAC/amp with its built-in Dock goes for around $110 in new condition, but if you are comfortable with used, there is a “Used – Very Good” condition listing (cosmetic imperfections; damaged original packaging) offered for $86~ by Amazon Warehouse Deals actual. The K5 averages 4.3 out of 5 based on 39 customer reviews and has 50 answered questions. It picked up a couple of each since the last time I posted about it.
Speaking of Fiio, note there are some Fiio + A&K iRiver IEM bundles running. Check our previous Fiio posts for those.
Used Beyerdynamic A20 Headphone Amplifier for $239
The new condition Beyerdynamic A20 Headphone Amplifier is on sale for $299, but if you want to save some more, you can get it in “Used – Very Good” condition (cosmetic imperfections; damaged original packaging) for $239~ by Amazon Warehouse Deals actual. As usual on Warehouse Deals, beware of “Just Launched” sellers and any seller with unusual or unexpected requests (such as emailing them before buying).
Tranesca Replacement Earpads for $13
If you like to try accessories from lesser known manufacturers, boldly going where the mainstream shopper has not gone before, a fairly new brand called Transesca is selling familiar-looking headphone earpads in black or white for $13 per pair and fulfilled by Amazon, so you get Prime shipping. They are not Add-On items.
They average 4.5 out of 5 based on 76 customer reviews, have 36 answered questions, and have a long list of compatible headphones in the product description over there. Between these three places, you can check whether your headphone will or won’t work. Among the headphones listed as compatible are famous models like the Sony V6/7506 duo, the Philips SHP-9500S, the Monoprice 8323, the Audio Technica M50/40/30/20 (with and without X) models, Sennheiser HD280/380, 518/558/598, HD 600, etc.
Mayhaps trying to increase their audiophile, they say their earpads do not fit Beats or Bose 🙂 Per the gallery picture over there, they come with a 24-month warranty…
I haven’t seen or touched these, but I’ll probably get a pair the next time I place an Amazon order that needs to get to $25+ because of those pesky Add-On items. I have at least three compatible headphones, so I should be able to test them ~ if I ever make progress on my review backlog 🙂
HyperX Cloud Pro Gaming Headset + Carrying Case for $50
Another one of those “Amazon works in mysterious ways” sales. The new condition HyperX Cloud Pro Gaming Headset bundled with the official HyperX carrying case is on sale for $50 with free shipping by Amazon actual, with up to three pairs per customer. The same model (silver color scheme) goes for $70 without the case. So you pay $20 less and get a free official case. This is not a lightning deal, so it’s either a price match or an old fashioned sale. Only this combo goes for $50. The others are $70+.
