Wedn: Anker Soundcore Life Note truly-wireless for $25 + S&H

And now off to something on the utilitarian front. The Meh.com daily deal running until 6/8/22 at 11:59pm eastern (or earlier if they sell out) is the new condition Anker Soundcore Life Note truly-wireless going for $25 plus shipping. Shipping is free if you are a paying member (sort of like their variant of Prime).

Per the specs over there, this is model A3908Z11-5, with IPX-7, promises up to 7 hours per charge, has apt-X (not bad when you consider triple-figure name-brand headphones don’t have it), bluetooth 5, USB-C charging, and a 1-year Anker warranty.

The 66-page user manual is linked-to from over there, look for the word-link “Manual” after following the customary “see more product specs” that takes you to the Meh forums where the product details live at.

Monoprice M1060 Open Over-Ear Planars for $230

A Dads-n-Grads sale at the Monoprice website also includes various audio-related products. Not just the obligatory electric guitars (because Grads and Dads), but there’s also a wired over-ear open-back planar magnetic headphone!

During the sale, the new condition Monoprice M1060 goes for $230 with free standard US shipping. Also available is store pickup for those in SoCAL.

Also part of the sale is the Liquid Spark by Cavalli headphone amp for $100…

PS: I do not know when this sale ends, but given the name of the sale, you can triangulate a general time frame 🙂

Tuesday: Shure SRH-840 Closed Over-Ears for $99

Once upon a time a darling in various price-tiered recommendation lists, Shure headphones have fallen off the hype train. But if you are interested in them, good until 6/6/22 at 11:59pm eastern, B&H Photo is offering as one of their daily deals the new condition wired closed-back over-ear Shure SRH-840 studio headphones for $99. Ships to USA only per the listing. It comes standard with extra earpads and extra cable, along with the obligatory 1/4″ adapter and the lovely Shure carrying pouch (model HPAC1, $5 stand-alone). I don’t remember if I wrote a blog post about it, but I love this drawstring pouch (if you don’t object to the Shure logo).

PS: per the listing, this is “the new packaging” edition ~ whatever that means 🙂
