Not 100% sure if this is the right place for it but I figured I would start a thread to put sales people find in for the holidays and black friday this year.

I'm going to start this off with Hifiman HE-560 V2 for $250. The regular price (msrp) isn't really what these go for now since it seems the street price is $350. Still it's a savings of $100 for headphones that are supposed to be good.

Glad you like it!
Those are the passive not the new version speakers, just to make that clear.
Still good deal

Holy moly! Great deal.

I'm holding out for KEF's Black Friday specials in the U.S. - hoping they offer a nice discount on the LS50w.

I just checked they have the white one too :) haha, 'w' stands for powered (aka. wireless) doesn't it..

Forum favorite JBL 305P II is on sale at sweetwater. $200 for a pair! I thought they were a steal at full retail ($300).

Amazon had them for $89.10 so I got a pair.

I was late, kept not hitting the buy button, and they claimed "out of stock - estimate 3 weeks delivery time".

But now it says they'll be here Tuesday.

and...

"Earned 5% Back, and an additional 5% Back with your Amazon Prime Rewards Visa Signature card."

So, who knows...

Just purchased a pair Down Under at a great(for Oz) price $US310. I am green with envy.
