Sennheiser HD 599 SE Open Over-Ears for $99

We continue looking at Prime Day festivities with a wired open-back over-ear headphone going for $99, the new condition Sennheiser HD 599 SE with up to three per customer.

Also on sale is one of their RF wireless models, the RF 120 Mark II overons [not sure if it’s decidedly over-ears or on-ears] going for $70.

And completing the trio is the wired CX 89S in-ears with a 1-button remote going for $20. This one has a stubby head, it’s kinda the opposite of the Etymotics 🙂

Even though these are part of the Prime Day deals, Amazon does not currently have a Prime-only restriction on them, meaning anyone can buy them.
