Sennheiser HD 820 arrives at Massdrop!
Massdrop fans, we have Sennheiser-y news for you! The Sennheiser closed-back flagship, the HD 820 is now available for purchase at the Massdrop website. This is the standard version, it is not a “Massdrop x Sennheiser” co-production.
The price right now is $2000, which is also the price at reputable online dealers such as B&H Photo. The prices at Amazon’s start at $1850 BUT look who’s offering them at $1850. Do you know these retailers? Are they authorized Sennheiser dealers? (SPOILER ALERT: they are not!)
PS: to clarify something in case it’s confusing for those not living and breathing on Amazon. If a product is shipped by Amazon (“fulfilled by Amazon”) but sold by a 3rd-party/marketplace seller, the warranty status of the product is determined by the authorized dealer status of the 3rd-party/marketplace seller. Just because it is shipped by Amazon, there’s no automatic transubstantiation of the warranty status!
Doorbuster: Monoprice BT-210 Bluetooth Lightweight On-Ears for $10 w/FS [Currently OOS]

EU: Sennheiser HD 560S drops to 161 euro
While the Sennheiser HD 560 S open over-ears remains hard to find in the USA, in Europe, we have the first sizable discount, as of the time of writing it is down to 161 euro at Amazon Germany sold and shipped by Amazon Germany actual…
NOTE however that prices at Amazon Germany tend to fluctuate and oscillate between price-points, so the price you see over there may vary depending on which time of the day you check over there…
… BUT as of the time of writing the shipping estimate is “Usually dispatched within 1 to 2 months.”… These Amazon estimates are rather nebulous, sometimes they get to you faster, sometimes not. In general, Amazon tries not to over-promise a fast delivery to prevent disappointments and such…
As to whether one should get the HD560S or HD6XX or HD600 or Jubilee or something else from another manufacturer, well, the internet and the audiophoolia forums are full of opinions 🙂
And as they say about opinions… they are like onions, they may make you cry 😉

Sony WH-1000XM4 with Morphie 20,800mAh Powerbank for $278
The launch of the over-ear Apple Airpods at $550 has an unintended benefit for the other manufacturers in the $300ish range of the consumer-popular ANC/bluetooth over-ear combos. They are now about half the price of the Apple product, making their price (that once may have looked high) look more reasonable!
And if among those competitors it is the Sony WH-X1000 M4 the one you want, it is currently on offer at Adorama’s website for $278 with free US shipping in either the black or the silver color scheme with two FREEBIES included automatically by Adorama:
+ Morphie 20,800 mAh powerbank, not a toy powerbank!
+ currently goes for $40 at Adorama’s
+ microfiber cleaning cloth (the more gadgets you have, the more of these are useful?)
Speaking of Adorama, check their on-going Audio sale which includes a number of headphones, some of which we already mentioned below…
Anker Soundcore Vortex Bluetooth Over-Ears for $26 w/FS
This is a limited time offer but not a daily deal. From the department of utilitarian closed-back over-ear bluetooths with wired 3.5mm audio input as well the Anker official store through the NewEgg website is offering the new condition Vortex Wireless for $26 with free US shipping. This is shipped by the Anker store, not by NewEgg…
This promises up to 20 hours of bluetooth playback, and comes with an 18-month warranty. It is however charging via micro-USB and runs Bluetooth 4.1 but then again, it’s only $26 🙂 A travel case is included which, considering the price, may be worth the price of admission on its own (you also get a 3.5mm and microUSB cables).
And for those studying for the Headphones SAT and Achievement tests, the full model name of this is A3031011b 🙂
H&A Versa Studio Headphones for $50 w/FS
Good until Friday at 10am ET (or earlier if sold out) Adorama is offering the new condition closed-back over-ear H&A Versa studio headphones for $50 with free US shipping…
Think along the lines of a Sony V6/7506 type of a competitor with a 1-year warranty, two cables (one straight, one coiled) and a 1/4″ adapter… They fold inwards…
Hifiman HE-560 V4 Planar Over-Ears for $269
More action at Adorama, as part of their limited time audio sales they are offering the new condition Hifiman HE-560 V4 Planar Over-Ears for $269 with free US shipping and handling…
Check with your favorite audiophile-audiophool websites and forums and YouTubes to sort out the various Hifiman options and versions and issues. It’s at least one full-time job 🙂
For more deals, check Adorama’s 240+ audio products on sale including headphones and their accessories… I will be going through these and posting more deals, but I can’t go through them all on the spot – I wish I was a 16-core AI bot ~ instead I’m a birdbrain with a Celeron brain-CPU 🙂

I’ll leave it to the forums to debate the minutia of categorizing these. Clip-Ons? In-Ears? Or just use the umbrella term Earphones like I just did? 🙂

You can buy as many as you want. This is not a daily deal…
Monday: refurbished Airpods PRO TW for $200
Apple created some current (and more future) confusion with their naming of their over-ear headphones also as Airpods. Just appending the “Max” at the end of the name is not enough for quick consumer disambiguation. Regardless…
… the headliner of the Monday February 1st, 2021 daily deals at the Best Buy website is the geek-stink-breath (TM Green Day) aka Geek Squad refurbished Airpods PRO truly-wireless going for $200 in the white color scheme with a 90-day warranty…

192 and 199 euro depending on when you look at it.
Staying at the EU, and speaking of Sennheiser, you can get the new condition closed-back over-ear Sennheiser HD 300 lightweight for 39 euro at Amazon Germany… This should not be confused with the Sennheiser HD 300 PRO studio headphones!
Both of these are “organic sales”, not part of any lightning deals or deals of the day, so the prices can (or cannot) change at any time and for any reason (which of course the Amazon AI price bots do not explain to us mere mortals)…
