Philips SHP-9500 Open Over-Ears for $62

The Philips SHP-9500 headphones fell off the hype train, as all headphones do, per the Unified Time-Decay Hype theory that has just been nominated for a Nobel prize 😉

BUT it remains one of the best bang for the buck open-back over-ear options out there! And if you are interested in it, it is currently on sale for $62 with free US shipping by marketplace seller “Phototech” with the order fulfilled by Amazon (shipping from Amazon facilities, gets free 2-day Prime shipping, payment, shipment and returns handled by Amazon, not the marketplace seller)…

And as fate would have it we have a text and picture unboxing of its first cousin, the SHP-9500S on the content side of this blog…

Look at that beautiful L 🙂 Can also work as a troll gift when you want to tell someone they are a …Loser – with that giant L 😉

FREE Ultrasone Signature DXP Closed-Back with purchase of $950 Manfrotto Tripod {ends Friday 7pm ET}

Here is something you don’t see every day! As part of the B&H Photo daily deals, as a flash deal that ends on Friday 3/19/21 at 7pm ET, you get the Ultrasone Signature DXP Closed-Back Over-Ear Headphones for FREE with the purchase of a tripod. You are reading right, it’s not April Fools Day!

The freebie is included automatically by B&H while this promotion is running, there’s no coupon, no rebate. It automagically appears in your shopping cart when you add the main item.

Ultrasone is a controversial name in some audiophile circles, but this is headphone with a current price of $600!

Of course the tripod you need to buy is no toy tripod, nor toy-priced tripod! You pay $950 after an automagic coupon appears in your shopping cart during this limited time promotion…

And the tripod you need to buy is… the Manfrotto 612 Nitrotech Fluid Video Head and Carbon Fiber Twin Leg Tripod with Ground Spreader

PS: how do you know you get the freebie? On the above product page, look for the tiny text that says “Includes Free: 1 item ($599.99 value)”. Or simply add the Manfrotto tripod to the shopping cart and the Ultrasone will automagically appear there for $0 more…

This is how it looks in the shopping cart after you add the tripod. You do NOT manually add the headphones. They appear automagically while this promotion is running…
