Panasonic gone wild! Their new condition closed-back on-ear HF100 in the white color scheme are currently on sale for the very specific price of $6.69 at Amazon by Amazon actual with up to three pairs per customer. Despite the low price, they are not Add-Ons 🙂 These are wired, no mic/remote.

If you prefer a mic/remote, the lowest price for that model, the HF100M, is $14.46 in the black color scheme… If you prefer the “Mic Step Up” model instead, the lowest price is the blue color scheme for $14.77. Limit three per color.

All these are organic sales, not lightning deals, so expiration time is unknown.

Beyerdynamic DT 1350 Closed Over-Ears Gold for $90

Back to back Beyerdynamics with the new condition closed-back on-ear gold special edition of the DT 1350 going for $90 with free shipping by the seller Focus Camera through a variety of retailers: thru Amazon (ships from Focus but Prime members get Prime-like shipping speed) and through their own eBay store (one way to spend any expiring eBay Bucks) and also through NewEgg and also through Walmart and their own website as well.

Beyerdynamic Custom i Over-Ears for $90

Beyerdynamic time now! Guitar Center has a clearance sale on the new condition closed-back over-ear Beyerdynamic CUSTOM i Over-Ear Pro headphones for $90 with free shipping. Ship to store is also an option where possible.

These are indeed over-ear headphones. Notice the extra puffiness of the earcups and earpads when you compare them to the On-Ear version. The On-Ear price is NOT good, they go on sale at NewEgg on a recurring basis under $40. I am only mentioning them so you can compare the pictures from the same website/source.

I haven’t seen or touched the Over-Ears, but I have the “Street” version of the On-Ears [still not sure what the differences are between the Street and “i”], with a text and pictures unboxing along with a review diary. One uncommon feature of these is that you can play two different music sources in them directly, each earcup has its own independent 3.5mm input (eg listen to audiobook with soft classical music playing in the background).
