eBay Ad teases Bose QuietComfort 3 ANC for $140

The eBAY Black Friday ad has been revealed and there is only one headphone there, it is the Bose QuietComfort 3 ANC over-ears offered for $140. The eBAY ad does not specify the sellers of the offers, or the condition of the product, so we won’t know until it goes live. Bose has an official outlet store there, but this headphone is not in their store right now.

I integrated their offer into our Black Friday Ads summary, which should not be confused with other tracker post, an on-going round-up of LIVE BF headphone deals.

Not a bad bundle if you want the headphones of course. Note that this is a 3-months of service at the $10 tier, I don’t know how this would work for other Spotify plans that have different monthly prices.

HifiMan Mega Mini Media Player for $99 [three color options]

More action in the Hifiman eBay store, the more expensive Portable Music Players were too embarrassed of the lower price of this model to have it under their DAP category so instead they pushed it to the “Other” category. Yes, the Otherization of DAPs!

Okay, silliness aside, the new condition HifiMan Mega Mini Media Player is on sale for $99 with free shipping by the Hifiman official ebay store in your choice of silver or gold or gray color schemes.

This can take microSD cards (often called “TF” in Asian tech specs) up to 256GB, and can play up to DSD. They have a long product description over there on the eBay listing, including a Q&A that answers the question whether it “requires a break-in”. I’m afraid to say that the only way to properly break in audio equipment is to use $999 audio cables, play alternative whale songs and pink noise, while wearing the headphones upside down and singing opera. This is known!

Hifiman Edition S Open/Closed Dynamic On-Ears for $129

The Hifiman eBay store is getting an early start on the Black Friday festivities, they have also discounted their open/closed Hifiman Edition S headphones from $149 to $129 in the black color scheme.

If you prefer to shop at Amazon, or if you want either color scheme, fear not, there are multiple Amazon listings on them for $129 and Prime eligible offered by the Hifiman Amazon store at these prices.

These are dynamic on-ear headphones. Their claim to fame is the “open/close” option which is fairly rare.

PS: the white color scheme’s name includes “lightning” in it. It’s part of the name. It does NOT have a lightning cable connector for Apple devices. To paraphrase REM, it’s part of the “Adventures in Chi-Fi” 🙂
