we find good deals for you!
Accessories time until Sunday 7/10/22 at 10am eastern at the Adorama daily deals with two headphone-related accessories. One specific, one more general purpose:
+ H&A (Adorama housebrand) sheepskin leather earpads for the Sony MDR-7507/V6 for $16
+ and other compatible headphones
+ Zing Drawstring Lens Pouch Medium for $5
+ which can also be repurposed for audio gear
If you are a fan of Dekoni “ear-thingies”, you’ve found the right post. Two parallel offers are currently running at Massdrop as follows…
The Dekoni Bulletz Ear Tips are offered for $12 in a multi-pack that contains three pairs, one in each size. You have options in the shopping cart for size (3mm or 4.9mm) and for +$3 you can get the “truly wireless” and for +$2 you can select single-size packs.
It’s easier when you play with the options in their shopping cart than describe it here in words :)… You can buy up to ten pairs and they come with free US shipping… They ship in mid-May 2020… As of the time of writing, they average 4.3 out of 5 based on 200 customer reviews…
AND now to the earpads. If have AKG headphones (and anything compatible/similar), they are offering the new condition Premium Earpads for AKG for $35 with free US shipping. Additionally, you have three options in the shopping cart that cost more for different material (sheepskin, hybrid, fenestrated).
They average 4.6 out of 5 based on 69 customer reviews as of the time of writing. The listed compatibility is the AKG K7XX, and select K6-series and K7-series models, along with their equivalent Q-series models. For more compatibility, check the reviews, comments and of course your favorite head-audio forums…
Massdrop is back with something specific and utilitarian, the FOCAL earpads for the ELEX headphones are currently running at Massdrop for $60 with free US shipping and returns. Nearly 500 units of these have been sold.
NOTE that these will ship on April Fool’s Day in 2020, that’s 3.5 months from the time of writing of this post, so keep that in mind if you need earpads yesterday…
We have a combo value meal if you are a fan of the Brainwavz brand. They are currently offering a headphone case + earpads for $22.50. The case is for folded headphones while the earpads are for the Sony MDR-V6, 7506 (and other compatible headphones). The earpads on their own go for $16.50, so you’re getting the case for $6 more.
The listing is a mix of earpads-only and case-n-earpads bundles, so pay attention if you are switching colors and options and if you are reading customer reviews and answered questions…
One thing that deserves a special mention from our previously mentioned Monoprice headphone-related sale are the new condition Monoprice earpads available for $13 with free standard US shipping in your choice of Protein Leather or Velour.
They both do well in the total of 15 customer reviews between them. You can buy upto twenty pairs per customer at the sale price. Free US standard shipping whether you buy one pair or ten.
The product description over there has a list of compatible headphones and for those and others not mentioned, don’t forget to check the customer reviews and the answered questions as well. The list includes many well-known headphones such as the Audio Technica M50X family (M40X, M30X, M50), their AD700X/900X open-backs, the AKG K551 and K553, Shure 840 and 440, Sony V6, MDR-1A, Fostex T50RP, Braiwavz HM5, Monoprice 8323, etc…
Earpads get nowhere near the glory headphones and DACs and amps and other music sources get but they are quite important in both the human comfort but also have impact on the perceived audio quality. I could be writing more and more paragraphs but I won’t 🙂
Which brings us to this Dakoni pads listing at Massdrop offering their audio donuts that are compatible with a variety of popular Sennheiser headphones: HD 6XX, HD 650, HD 59X, and the HD 580. The HD 600 is feeling a bit left out at the moment 🙂
The price depends on the materials as follows:
+ Elite Velour for $35
+ Elite Hybrid for $55
+ Sheepskin for $60
+ Fenestrated sheepskin for $65
These will ship in mid-July 2019 by the vendor. Free shipping for US addresses, low cost shipping internationally. There is no mention of warranty in the listing which is brand new. As of the time of writing, it has six days and change to go. In previous listings, they sold over 2,200 units and they average 4.3 out of 5 based on 20+ customer reviews.
If you have the Massdrop-exclusive Sennheiser HD6XX or HD58X headphones or their HD650 and HD580 progenitors, for the next five days and change (from blog-posting date), Massdrop is offering the Dekoni Earpads for said headphones starting at $35 with free shipping. The $35 price is for the Elite Velour, with prices increasing for other options (Elite Hybrid is $55, Sheepskin is $60, Fenestrated Sheepskin is $65). These will ship in early May from the vendor with all sales final…
This lightning deal expired but it is a recurring offer…
Unlocked at Massdrop and running for the next five days and change (from blog-posting date) are the new condition Dekoni Earpads for the M50X (and the other Audio Technica headphones in its line (M40X, M30X, M20X) along with …the Sony MDR-7506) for $10 with free US shipping for the base model (leather exterior, foam interior) or $15 for the velour option (velour exterior, memory foam interior). These will be shipped by the vendor in early April 2018 with all sales final.
If you need a super-budget extra pair of earpads, or you want to compare different ones, the Cosmos brand of Sony 7506/V6 replacement earpads is going for $5.48 with free shipping for Prime members [shhhh! it’s not an Add-On item] or with a $25+ order. A handful of “fulfilled by Amazon” sellers have these for this price, so it looks like some kind of a group price-match.
Note that on the same listing there are earpads for different headphone models, so if you are interested in customer reviews, you have to dig into the detailed reviews to find the reviews for this model. This is the pre-filtered link to the V6/7506 option. There are over 260 reviews for them, unfortunately filtered review lists do not calculate the review score average, only the root/main review score is given.
