With the prices of the 400i and the 560 being so extremely competitive, you would think HiFiMan is one of the few companies that seems to grasp the idea of pricing things fairly and based on cost. But, then there's the Susvara and Shangri-La...

I never see the price of any of their products is competitive.

That's your opinion. I think it's wrong, but suit yourself.

Not sure if this is a great price, but seems to me that it is a very good price
HiFiMan HE 560 Headphones
$899.00

for $499.00

From Audio Advisor

The Canadian equivalent price appears to be available on Amazon.ca for $679 + $59 shipping (eep). They're listed as being sold by Hifiman, though the reviews and past sales numbers seem strangely low? I'm sure it's fine, but that's a legit sale, yeah?

I'm currently interested in the 560's and these deals certainly beat my local stores $1200CAD price tag.

Looks nice deal specially for those in Europe : no custom fees.

Call you local store and see if they will match, given this is the new list price.

Very much my plan for the afternoon. Even if they don't, they have a demo pair I can try out.

I will add that it is not possible for AK to ship to USA for that deal. Totally just tried to order, then got rejected.

I also am very content with my opus, but free iems are too good a deal to pass up.

You are right Sir, I just tried myself and US shipping is no go, tried Serbia where I would be on vacation in a month, heave friend to ship to there, but it is also no go; then tried Yemen, Albania, and Ukraine and no problem top ship there, so living is US have some disadvantages, oh well…bought Mojo

Brookstone Big Blue Bluetooth Headphone Amplifier and USB DAC for $25 shipped.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01N9F3FYQ/

Eh, what the heck, I'll be the guinea pig and try it.

I finally got to test this for a bit and it's a steal for $25. For those on a tight budget and want a portable DAC/amp w/ BT, there's nothing out there even close to this price that's as good as this. It has lots of power to drive almost anything, but dynamically it's not great (though better than my S8 Plus' internal amp), and the FiiO E18 is sonically better in every way (for $110), but the E18 doesn't have BT. It feels decently made, the battery lasts a looong time, the stepped volume pot feels good and sturdy, and it's PnP with iOS, Android, and Windows.

Some sellers do have them for $44, and IMO it's still quite a good deal for that price. You might even find it cheaper on ebay, so look there too.

I guess its good for watching TV without disturbing family members. It make your wired headphones wireless

Since most modern TVs (and HT receivers) have BT now, that's probably a very good usage for this.

My Yamaha AVR has BT send, as well as receive. This allows me to use BT headphone with the receiver. I'm not sure how common this is, but check to make sure you don't already have a BT transmitter built-in to your receiver.

Seems like a good deal. But someone says Focal will offer 30% off for Elear and Utopia in September.

Good grief, that Utopia bundle... If that had come up when I first started shopping for equipment. Let's just say I'd have a different amp at least.
