Beyerdynamic DT 1990 PRO for $540 [or bundles for more]

The previously mentioned Beyerdynamic sale also takes us to the DT 1990 PRO Open-back Over-ears going for $540 at Amazon by Amazon actual and a few pennies less by Electronics Expo. A variety of accessories are included.

On the other hand, if you prefer to bundle things, $700 will get you these headphones bundled with the A20 headphone amplifier (another Beyerdynamic product), or $600 will get you three freebies, the Fiio A5 portable head-amp, a Slappa Hardbody PRO case, and a …32GB Sandisk microSD card. You cannot use the microSD card with the headphones, but you can use it on any device that takes microSDHC cards 🙂
