I have the white pair in my bedroom with PSB Imagine Minis. Very well made metal stands.

In case anyone bought these recently at full price, just a reminder that I think all of these have at least 30 day return or price match policy. In my case I'd bought from B&H about 10 days before their Cyber Monday price—called and they credited the difference back to my card. (I know Amazon won't price match, but they have long return policy with free shipping—has a similar Black Friday deal with a Topping DX7 Pro, needed to buy another at the new price, and ship the old back after receiving the new one...need to drop it off at UPS...)

And yeah, I'd like to see the iLoud MTM measured, but it's a good fit for my needs regardless

Today's code is 50% off their Carbon IEM. That is a $200 cut. These sales are no joke...I'm going to pick up the Be though.

See updated prices in red.

I bought ER3XRs and they turned out to be a disappointment compared to ER2SE, too colored for my tastes.

Sennheiser Momentum 2 Wireless Over the Ear Headphones (Certified Refurbished) for $70 on Ebay. You have to follow the instructions on Slickdeals to get their rebate to reduce it to that price: https://slickdeals.net/f/14681591-s...bished-70-after-39-slickdeals-rebate-free-s-h

Wireless Speaker (for Americans):
Klipsch Heritage Wireless The One II Tabletop Stereo (walnut)
Normally US$200, now on sale for US$168 (16% drop) on amazon.com (lowest price ever).
Must purchase from 'filmsforcharity' to get the deal.
Crutchfield is showing US$250, bestbuy.com US$200.

Not sure if there's any interest in this wireless speaker? Let me know if these are any good.

Wireless Speaker (for Americans):
Klipsch Heritage Wireless The One II Tabletop Stereo (walnut)......Let me know if these are any good.

They certainly look nice. Klipsch has made at least 3 versions of The One. The One (first) has a built in battery and is available discounted to $150 for at least a few minutes more at Woot.com. The One with Google Assistant and Chromecast Built In is on sale for $200 at Klipsch direct. I have never heard any of them.

But there is stiff competition at this price point with the Google Home Max at $150 (through Buydig on eBay) and the JBL Link 300 and 500 heavily discounted as well. In my bedroom, I am now using a pair of Nest Audios (about $170) which sound better to me at lower volumes than any single smart speaker I have heard. These smart things are probably what most home hifi looks like in the future I think.

Studio Monitor (for Americans):
Neumann KH 80 DSP
Normally US$500/ea, now on sale for US$400/ea (20% drop) on amazon.com.
Last time we had this deal was back in Jan 2020, so grab it like you stole it!
Must purchase from 'YourFavoriteStore7' to get the deal.

Spoiler: Photo

Sweetwater, bhphotovideo are showing regular US$500/ea.

Side note: I didn't get an alert for this deal, as I should have gotten it since the sale went live 2 days ago.
I just happened to be browsing amazon and looked at the price of this item, and voila, saw the sale from the 3rd party!
My accident is your gain!

That's the speaker Amir reviewed 3 times.

UPDATE:
As @GGroch pointed out, they might not be an authorized dealer?
But perhaps you can use it as leverage for price matching with your favorite store? You guys know the drill...have fun!

 

[GGroch]

RE: Neumann....the vendor YourFavorite store7" seems brand new with no feedback, not shipped by Amazon, and no indication they are a Neumann authorized dealer. So, balance that against the price.

Update edit, and they only have a single speaker in stock. Ha, $450 seems the going rate from dealers on eBay, so I agree with above...call and negotiate.

That is the time you have to register for an invite to pre order it at $170 instead of $200.

I know Erin H measured the 807 here: https://www.erinsaudiocorner.com/loudspeakers/jamo_s807/
and he wasn't super impressed.

But....

You get all of this for $399. Might be a good starter 5 speaker set or for a kid.
