Yeah they don't beat the Sony MDR-1000X's in sound quality or features but the build and comfort are better. Plus I'll have these long after the Sony's die because of the replaceable batteries.
Amazing deal - good for you! :)
I personally use the MUCH smaller in-ears (Bose QC20). I did not believe they'd be effective in noise cancelling... boy was I wrong! :wink:

Pangea Power Conditioner on sale at AA: http://www.audioadvisor.com/prodinfo.asp?number=PGNPC8&variation=SE

This is the mid tier model with a few nice component improvements, so by purchasing it, you pay less than the normal price of the base line!

Trying not to take it off-topic (too much), but are those even worth the money?!
Those are NOT doing any conditioning! Basically a high-quality extender cord... so, if the AC in your walls are noisy - all 4 or 8 devices connected to this extension cord would get the same noise!
Just to make it clear, I did talk to Pangea rep at RMAF last month and he confirmed that those do NOT do any conditioning of the AC signal. So, garbage in -> garbage out.

Getting closer to BF... any real deals (i.e. more than $100 off) on the HiFiMAN Edition X v2 ?
I have been a good boy, waiting patiently for months... :angry:
To be clear, I am looking for sub-$1000 price (and preferably $800).

After the HE-560 was discontinued and heavily discounted, I heard rumors and whispers than the Edition X v2 is next. Fingers crossed...

This is a Power Distribution Strip, not a conditioner. They are different. Thanks @Zachik for pointing this out.

Good points!

SVS SB12 for under $400? That's a huge discount!

I have the SB-1000 and just love it...

I have the SB-13Ultra, and I also love it.

Note, however, the SVS SB12-NSD went on sale in Nov 2016 for $399, and I think remained at that price all year. It's a good sub at a good price, but I don't think the deal is special. I haven't seen it lower, so don't hold out for that.

About Tidal - subscriptions went down recently. Here in EU I'm charged about 8.5 euros/month for HiFi (top) down from ~10.

The nebula is good.

Excerpt: "The AAW Nebula Two has solid build quality, adequate accessories, and excellent sound quality for the price. I’ve never heard an IEM with a more natural, balanced sound before; add to that a 3D soundstage, phenomenal end-to-end frequency extension, and great instrument separation with fantastic detail retrieval, and you get an IEM that punches well above its asking price."
