I have one of these and listening to it now with a Topping D10b and Hifiman HE5xx on the balanced side and it's excellent. SE side is 1/4 and 600 ohm Beyers are ok until you do more than -4db preamp reduction. The Hifiman HE6se was the same story on the XLR, up to -4db it's still fun/loud volume, but push it to -6db and you'll max out on power quickly. It's really transparent for production work, but needs a DAC with filter and color settings (like the SMSL M300) to give it a little personality. Much better than the SMSL SP200 for comparison, sounds flawless and I bet it measures as well as the A10H review here.
Sabaj A20h $119

The “suit” of all 3 is $449

It’s the DAC only for $122.
They’re being slightly deceitful if you don’t look at the way you order.

I see, wow I don't trust the site very much now. A lot of their other stuff is full retail, and I see Amazon is back in stock on the A20h, which is where I got it before they ran out during the holidays. A photo of all of them together is pretty lame, don't know if I'd buy from them now or not.

SMSL HO200 amplifier brand new $340 after the $60 coupon to click before adding to the shopping cart. I've had a couple of them and really like the mid gain which is huge. I tried with some 600 ohm Beyers and sub bass heavy music, but it didn't go into protection mode (maybe didn't have it loud enough, but it was pretty up there, maybe just at risky volume levels).

Looks like a good deal, except I wonder if there's any reason to prefer HO200 over Topping L70 (which currently sells for $350 even w/o any deals) at all.

Wage Wired Gaming Headset for $3.99 on Woot with free Amazon shipping.
I just got one of these, just to keep plugged into onboard sound for Google voice calls. The Pro version has good reviews, will be a bonus if it's decent for anything else like music. It's a $3 off coupon listed at the bottom, same login and payment as regular Amazon.
Update: They just came in and I'm listening to them now. If you've ever heard a Corsair HS50/60, then you've got a good idea what they sound like. They come with pleather pads, and a single connector for the headset (no splitter in the box). Ridiculous easy to power, onboard sound or a phone is plenty. I bet a wireless console controller would light them up well. Bass is a little muddy with the pleather pads. I'd honestly tell someone to spend $12 on the Yincrow X6 instead which are my daily drivers. The pads are removable, but a smaller size than Beyerdynamic. I have a big box of pads and this will go in there for when a day of complete boredom hits.


Pyle 200 Watt Wireless Bluetooth Home Stereo Amplifier $29 with shipping
I might get one just to see what $30 including shipping gets for performance...

Klipsch Reference On-Ear II Headphones $29

Soveug Replacement Ear Pads Cushion for Sennheiser HD700 $12.77 and a 25 percent off coupon.
I just got a set of these in, and they're better than the other 4 aftermarket brands I've had. The cloth material has a tight nylon thread count, so it loses some detail vs the $80 stock alcantara cloth ones.

Sennheiser parts department does have them, and the HD800 pads ($75, why they are cheaper I don't know) available after several months being on backorder. They have a page to signup for a mailing list and gives 10 percent off your first order.
