B&H has Cleer Flow (v1) over ear ANC Bluetooth Headphones in Black and Silver for $50 with free 2 day shipping. Deal of the day. Bluetooth 4.2 with LDAC and aptX (and some report aptX-HD). I have never heard them, but they do have some interesting tech. The "Ironless" 40mm drivers have no pole pieces which is supposed to lower distortion.

Did some research on reviews and they were pretty solid for these...even when they were priced around $250.

Figured for $50, they'd be worth a shot for a knockaround ANC set of cans. While the flash deal is over, they're still available from B&H for $70

It says they even support LDAC, that's pretty cool.

UPDATE: Mine just arrived. I am very pleased. They remind me most of the JBL Everest 750NC in terms of fit/finish/comfort. More upscale than the 750 in terms of a lot better noise cancelling and a 2 level ambient mode, better codex including LDAC and Aptx HD. The sound is a be more neutral than most JBL phones, with a greater treble emphasis that to my ear is right on....clear not harsh. I do hear more detail than the 750NC, perhaps because of the pole-less magnesium drivers. It took me a few minutes to get used to the touch volume control, but it has worked fine after the learning curve.

I think my post earlier today on the Fiil Driifter DNC neckband earbuds are an even better deal on a totally different kind of phone. I just added a review by Gamesky and revised the original pricing ($50-100 in 2019). Fiil like Cleer is not well known but quite legit. I try to limit my enthusiasm in my posts so I do not sound like a shill, but I purchased 3 of the Fiil and Acil phones over the last 3 months as Amazon gradually lowered the price and increased coupon discounts. This looks like the final closeout at $10-15. I bought 3 more today I do not need, but will make great audiophile gifts.

I’ve got the NW-Z507 and I wish I never bought it. While I like the way it sounds, the screen is too small, and the battery life is atrocious. This thing dies in only a few hours.

True - I've gone from ZX300 -> ZX507 -> M11 -> M11pro -> WM1A mostly due to battery time...

If that is just a microusb OTG adapter, man is that an illegitimate markup.
Upon further analysis it is not a usb OTG adapter. But it is still illegitimate in my book.

An Amazon seller of FIIL earbuds seems to be closing out their neckband style models for $10-15, originally in 2019 about $50-$100, so a good discount. I own a couple of them and like the comfort, neutral sound and good connectivity. Battery life is OK. An ACIL branded neckband model from the same importer has AptxHD but is a bit light on bass imho.
- ANC Model with hybrid Dynamic and Knowles BA drivers, BT 4.2 - $10

Thanks @Ggroch for this post. I bought the Fiil Drifter DNC Plus.
I have not investigated all the features, but it connected easily with my dap and it sounds much, much better than any $10 iem that I've tried (by a big margin).
I'm really happy with it - thanks for posting and sharing the deal.

I just went in to get my free earbuds. See my brief initial review in the earbuds forum.
My Jbuds initial review

Microcenter is like Fry's and Bestbuy - a big computer store with all sorts of electronics.
They're obviously trying to survive the pandemic rather than go under like Fry's, so they're giving away things to get you in the store to shop.
Do sign up for their Insider Rewards program in-store as well for the free SD/MicroSD/Flash Drive, too, while picking up these earbuds.

I took advantage of the reduction in price of the NW-A55. It's due to arrive Tuesday. I was considering a Hiby R2 or R3, a Hidizs AP80 or pro or a Fiio M5 or M6 until the price of the Sony was lowered.
