Ultrasone is a controversial name in some audiophile circles, but this is headphone with a current price of $600!
Of course the tripod you need to buy is no toy tripod, nor toy-priced tripod! You pay $950 after an automagic coupon appears in your shopping cart during this limited time promotion…
And the tripod you need to buy is… the Manfrotto 612 Nitrotech Fluid Video Head and Carbon Fiber Twin Leg Tripod with Ground Spreader…
PS: how do you know you get the freebie? On the above product page, look for the tiny text that says “Includes Free: 1 item ($599.99 value)”. Or simply add the Manfrotto tripod to the shopping cart and the Ultrasone will automagically appear there for $0 more…
This is how it looks in the shopping cart after you add the tripod. You do NOT manually add the headphones. They appear automagically while this promotion is running…
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…

The Xperia 1 smartphone is factory unlocked with USA warranty, with a 6.5″ OLED 21:9 4K display, 128GB UFS 2.1 on-board storage, Gorilla Glass 6, IP65/68, dual SIM hybrid, Snapdragon 855, 6GB RAM, microSDXC slot, no headphone jack but bluetooth 5.0 with apt-X HD, released May 2019.

This is an “in-stock drop” so it will ship in one business day after purchase, it won’t take weeks and weeks like the traditional Massdrop offerings…
To ensure the offer is running, use your browser’s in-page search feature (eg CTRL F in Chrome) looking for “NuForce” or “Stride”. You will see this promotion mentioned multiple times in the listing. Even though it does not appear “above the fold” (on the part of the page that fills up some screens, eg laptops).
The HD 6XX come with a 2-year manufacturer warranty since they are produced in co-operation with Hennheiser 🙂 The NuForce kit includes a hard case and six sets of eartips and a microUSB cable. No mention of warranty on the NuForce.
When you click the “BUY” button that takes you to the shopping cart, you will not see the NuForce mentioned there. The options you see in the shopping cart are for additional optional purchases (extra earpads, cables, DAC/amp, warranty) and a shipping upgrade option. Most of the optional items are offered with an additional combined purchase discount, eg the Drop+ THX AAA 789 linear amplifier is +$300 instead of $400 which sells on its own.
NOTE that this is the recently revised HD 6XX. Check the Massdrop and the interwebs for more details if you are not already familiar with the revisions…
