Master "deals" (massdrop, ebay, Amazon, etc.) Thread on Audio Product Sales

[Harmonie]

Bose QuietComfort 25 Noise Cancelling Headphones -- US $109.95 US $279.95 (61% off)

Now don't kill da messenger if Bose ain't ya thing...

That's a great deal, consider if you needed just the replacement parts for the one you have already.

As everyone already posted, the 11.11 sale has started on ShenzhenAudio, Hifigo, Aliexpress.
Also, as other have mentioned, Apos.audio does have price match policy, so it's a good option for US buyers.

I created a comparison btw Oct 13 deals and today's deal.

Result?
Aliexpress is the cheapest, usually by US$5 to US$10.

Let me know if I've made a mistake or you want to see other models added.

EDIT:
- I'm not seeing amazon.com deals from Canada, since I don't have a US prime account, but others have posted that amazon will have 15% off voucher if you're a prime member and when 3rd party seller is ShenzhenAudio.
- Also, amazon.ca doesn't have the same deals, since none of the 3rd party sellers are ShenzhenAudio (which is giving the discount in US, for example).
- Also, I've purchased from ShenzhenAudio and didn't pay any taxes when I ordered a US$110 item, on Oct 13. Then, when I received, I didn't pay any duties. Shipping was 2 weeks from China to Canada, from time of order.

UPDATE:
There's still 1.5hr left on Aliexpress deals.

Here's how you can save up to US$12 more than what I previously reported.

Here's some "promo codes" I found online:

$3 off $20 - AUTHEN1111
$3 off $30 - LETYSHOP1120
$4 off $30 - SINGLEDAY4
$7 off $50 - EXPRESS1111
$7 off $50 - 7ALIBUY1111
$7 off $50 - ZUZUSINGLE7
$7.91 off $55 - PEPPERAE1111
$10 off $100 - SINGLEDAY10
$10 off $100 - ZUZUSINGLE10
$12 off $110 - SINGLEDAY12
$12 off $110 - EPNSINGLE12

As an example, I previously said that the Topping E30 would be US$112, well, you can save even more than that.
I simply forgot how Aliexpress works, as the last time I've purchased was 3 years ago.

How to claim the above promo codes?
1. Add item to cart like I described above (while claiming all coupons you can)
2. At "Shopping Cart" press "Buy" item, which takes you to page to select credit card and address
3. You'll see a section called "Promo Code"
4. Enter "EPNSINGLE12" into that, to get an additional $12 off.
Here's the Topping E30 for US$100.49

Spoiler

Here's the Topping A50s for US$160.99

Overall:
My table above was true, meaning it was the best deal you could find just by applying the regular coupons (at checkout stage).
But to take things farther, you can apply "promo code" (shown above) (at payment stage) in order to save even more $.
Lesson learned and hopefully you guys did too.

You guys are working hard to find all these deals and I want to receive notifications for each one new post in this thread, not just the first unread. I looked around and can't find a setting to enable it. Is there a way?

Maybe, need to think about how to best integrate it into my existing e-mail driven workflow, not very interested in another place to check, might as well just visit the thread.

The "watch" function works for me. Every time there is a new post I get an email and the "alerts" lights up and I'm off to ASR!

I sometimes forget to visit following a notification and there won't be new notifications until you visit, neither the email nor the forum alert.

The code didn’t work for me. Bummer

Did you try right now?
Because Aliexpress deals ended 12hrs ago.
When I tried it 12hrs ago, the 'promo code' worked, as you can see in the screenshots I posted.

Accessories4Less is running a bunch of holiday season deals.
https://www.accessories4less.com/make-a-store/cms/specials/all-holiday-specials/1.html

Spoiler: Coupons

A few that jump out at me, though I can't say if these are good, great or bad products.
The mid level Denon's seem like a good deal for those with a lower budge than the x3600 and up.
The Yahama RS-202 seems like a great price for a budget system, secondary system, amp for another zone.
KEF LSX seems good like a good price for an easy mount it on the wall, plug it in and it works solution, especially for something that's not a critical listening space. They look decent too, in person the cloth sides are really nice. Though owning the LS50Ws the connection and app stability do leave something to be desired.
The 10% off Focals could lead to some good deals,

Yes. I did tried now. Just realized I was late for the deal. Thanks anyways.

KEF Q150 is back down to $300 on Amazon.

Nice. If anyone is thinking of this $99 100W Yamaha receiver as a stocking stuffer, maybe send it to Amir first? This would be a phenomenal piece to review.

That is an insanely good price! On Amazon it is $170.

 

[weasels]

That is an insanely good price! On Amazon it is $170.

Interesting that it says it only drives 8 ohm speakers. Would look like an interesting option to pair with some ELAC DB62s for a budget system but the ELACs are 6 ohms.

 

[sweetchaos]

Bluetooth Portable Speaker (for US buyers):
Sonos Move
Usually US$400, now US$300 (25% off) on amazon.com (lowest price in the last year).
Both black, white.

It would be fine. For regulatory reasons they tend to spec only high impedance.
