Do NOT buy the Fiil. Bad reviews abound. NC not good and QC issues. Good luck in your holiday shopping

Thanks for the post. I had a purchase pending, but had put it on the side burner. Just refreshed the list and have emailed Hannah.

Thanks. Took advantage and got full ensemble for my Audioquest Nighthawk Carbons

Monoprice has some good deals on their monolith headphones.
570 (the sendy aiva clones) for $200
1070 for $300
1570 for $400

Koss Black Friday sale has started -
Porta Pro, KPH30i, and some of their low end models are discounted on their website and Amazon. On their website you can stack the 15% off sign up promo.
Audiophile and retro bundles exclusive to their website is also on sale. $49.99 and $99.99 respectively. Promo does NOT stack with retro bundle, but still a very good discount if you’re into the collectability factor of beige Porta Pros, which never go on sale.

Edit - BT540i for $99 as well. It’s basically a BT ProDJ200 I’ve heard. Not really of any interest to us audiophiles, but would probably make a decent gift/recomendation for others looking for BT headphones. Doesn’t help that the ProDJ200 is $50 on Amazon normally lol

Thoughts on purchasing these two?

HE6SE @ 699
https://www.adorama.com/hmhe6sev2.html?emailprice=t

LQI Balanced XLR 4 Pin Female to Speaker Taps cable - $90 w/10% off sale

I have the Hegel H160 which does 150 watts @ 8ohms so should have plenty of power. Is this a no-brainer or should I just continue saving the for the items I need?

Moondrop Blessing 2 for $272 sound like a good deal. Available at Hifigo.
Also most the Etymotic and Koss products are on sale.
xDuoo TA-20 desktop tube head-amp for $312, again at HifiGo.

From what I remember, the Hifiman sold from Adorama had massive quality issues, like they were almost b-stock or worse. I would actually avoid, even though it seems like a good deal.
I would keep an eye out for used pairs as well. This is specific to the HE6 and variants.

So uh, Koss replied to my tweet about the retro bundle. It looks like they are going to threaten me with a good time, so I will wait and see. :thinking:

I’m sorry everyone, but it’s impossible for me not to be a shill despite 90% of their good products having build quality issues.
