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

[Timcognito]

Any idea if as good or better than the original?

I have the original and like it.

Don't know but everyone who commented over at slickdeals.net was very happy with it. You can check there. I have all kinds of audio stuff but got one as a gift for a relative.

Seems pretty good based on the RTINGS review.

Hifiman Sundara Review (headphone)

This is a review and detailed measurements of the Hifiman Sundara planar magnetic open back headphone. It was kindly sent to me by one of their retailers, Apos Audio and costs US $349. The Sundara looks elegant and no less so than higher up in the line from Hifiman: The cups don't swivel...

Routedge Press has some books which might be of interest to ASR participants.

They suggested this to me from the algorithm. They have other technical books. (I'm a big fan of Interlibrary Loan most local libraries have it)

Audyssey Room EQ Review

This is a review and detailed measurements of the Audyssey Room Equalization. Audyssey is standard technology in a number of Audio/Video Receivers such as the Denon AVR-X3600H I recently reviewed. The standard version in the AVR is mostly all or nothing so I downloaded the Marantz/Denon...

Not so much a 'deal' -

Parts Express is holding a 'sale' that scales back - but not completely - recent increases in the list prices of most Dayton Audio powered subwoofers:

The Dayton Audio SUB-1500 now sells for $279.98. It recently listed for about $309 and listed earlier in 2025 for about $259.

Revel appears to have specials, or some relief from recent price increases?

These are at Crutchfield (CF), check your dealer. Most are color-specific, see CF. FYI, the only current Revel speakers are the PerformaBe line, and in-walls. No specials on in-walls at CF. CF has good discounts on Performa3 subwoofers in acoupla sizes and colors.

HIFIMAN SUNDARA Over-Ear Planar Magnetic Open Back Hi-Fi Headphones (Refurbished Condition) on sale for $139 - $16.68 (12% off) when you apply the coupon code CLR10POFF on the checkout page = $122.32.

For 11.11 sale I see the Sundara new at $108.56 less a $12 coupon with free shipping on Aliexpress. Came to $106 with taxes for me. Ships from USA from "Hifiman Local Trader" store. Links to Aliexpress are complicated, so log in and search. I believe both prices and coupons vary by account, but its a great price on one of my favorite headphones if your can get it.

Not sure if these are good or not.

Nice, thanks for that. Been looking for a decent pair of speaker stands that don't break the bank for a bit now.

JBL 260f speakers are on sale for $329.95 each at various US retailers including Amazon, Best Buy, Crutchfield, etc. Regular price is $550, I think. The 280f is also on sale for $399.95 ($660 regular).

I'm somewhat tempted by the 260f, but I can't find any reviews with measurements. Erin tested the 280f model and wasn't impressed. I'm in search of small towers for my office and recently picked up Dali Oberon 5 to try. Still debating if there is something better out there for the price... I think the 260f might be too large physically...
