Don't wait, $125 and $119 is the usual price for that one, the Ultra 1tb is $108 and is basically the same considering that you are gonna use it for a DAP and not for video.
Flash memory prices are on a constant decline for the past 20+ years.
Other than "flash sales" and excluding supply chain craziness - prices WILL drop. When 2TB microSD cards will finally come out, 1TB prices will drop even more!

TL;DR wait. maybe. :laughing:

I think thats how most audiophile gears work in that companies are selling a rebranded product built and designed by a manufacturer overseas (china), except in this case there is a way to skip the middleman. That is why youve gotta love the companies who do as much as possible to source locally and build in-house.

InEarz is an IEM manufacturer, I'm assuming people would be checking out their IEMs/CIEMs, not their cables. If you're able to buy direct from the OEM at a cheaper price then that would be the smarter/cheaper move.

Wait deeper into the year and prices will go even lower, according to many industry analysts. I'm keeping my eye out for that 1TB! Can't fit all my music on a 512Gb anymore.

...but for those that can fit all of their music onto a 512GB MicroSD card, the Teamgroup Go 512GB UHS—1 V30 MicroSD Card is on Amazon for $29.99 (reviews say that the formatted capacity is around 465GB, but that is the only real negative that I find):

Also, for those who what to future-proof for an dSLR or other imaging device after a music capacity upgrade, the PNY Premier-X V30 A2 is on Amazon for $32.99 as well (Teamgroup is slightly better for reliability, but the A2 rating is for $3 more):
