Nothing. Black Friday sales are generally a scam.

Also, it’s still Thanksgiving. Calm down.

[–] Sanslution@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Nothing really, everything I wanted I bought during singles day on AliExpress

[–] atyne_mar@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Posts like this make me feel good. I feel like when I was a kid and we were comparing what toys we got on Christmas 😄

Anyway, I got myself GL2000 (loving them so far), Moonlight (still waiting), Hexa (still waiting), Zero Red (still waiting), and Tin T3 (still waiting).

It's only Thursday! I'm holding out for the big one (it's never coming but I need to cope somehow)

[–] Haydostrk@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hasn't started yet lol. Let's see. Might get a few iems and the qudelix 5k

[–] Sebax_@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

is the qudelix 5k getting a discount for Black Friday or are you just getting it because you can?

The Questyle M15 was $210. I ordered it on Tuesday night and it came yesterday already. It's pretty great.

[–] ehuud@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (4 children)

IE600 - arrived today and I'm in love

[–] fragileNotFragil@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I have an open question in my mind about their bass - is it real bass or (for lack of a better term) audiophile bass? Also compared with the SA6

Ordered Sennheiser HD 650s through Walmart of all places. $306 shipped inc. tax, but combined with a Rakuten 10% back link and an offer on my Amex for $25 credit back from a walmart order, I think I did well.

Also ordered a Fiio K7, not on sale at $213 shipped inc. tax plus a 10% back Rakuten link.

Letshuoer S12 pro for $83. Will be my first foray into planar magnetic drives.

[–] DidiHD@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm looking for budget IEMs (sub 50), got the Truthear x Zero recommended but they don't seem to get discounted

[–] GuiltyBand9640@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

on aliexpress they cost 40$

[–] PanzerkampfwagenIII@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Not a blessed thing. Amazon got enough from me this year. A friend of mine got me a set of Tanchjim One IEMs, the ones with a wee DSP on the end of the cable. I'm loving them so far, the DSP and app add so much to an already very fine iem. Also it's nice to see them in a different shape, sort of bullet shaped as opposed to the semi trapezoid shape that's become standard.

[–] Gizm0Guru@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

My gift to myself this year is the Meze Empyrean II - don’t think there are any deals tho.

[–] Slaageri@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Moondrop bleasing 3 and fiio btr7 white and some accesories. Now i am trying to justify my self to buy moondrop variations!

[–] SgtBrassBallz@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

IE 600 for ~$356 USD. Hasnt arrived yet though.

[–] WasserTyp69@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I'm happy with what I already have

[–] finn4489@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Sennheiser ie900 for $1k.

[–] L4ll1g470r@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

No headphones, as I’ve already overhauled my bluetooth side this year (Focal Bathys and Airpod Pro Usb-c), but I did get Kef LSX IIs for my desktop setup.

[–] T495@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Ordered the Aria 2 and 7hz Salnotes Zero with the Linsoul 100$ for 50$ Coupon. Paid 65 Euro with shipping.

[–] SchwizzelKick66@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Grabbed a Hifiman Edition XS when they started their BF sale like a month ago. I also bought the Ananda SE, but I ended up returning them because I prefer the XS.

I'm also debating buying the HD650 for $287 on amazon because I'm a weirdo and want a "legit" 650 to go with my Senn collection, even though I have a 6xx already.

[–] HedgeGoy@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Haha that is a bit weird 😝 Hey you’ll get a longer cable out of it

cant choose between truthear zero red and hexa, difference 20$

[–] atyne_mar@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Just buy them both like me 😄

[–] GuiltyBand9640@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

My budget is not that big😄 and since you have both, maybe you can give me some advice? which headphones do you like best? and what about the bass of the Hexa and the wearability of the Zero Red?

[–] atyne_mar@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don't have them yet. I just bought them both on BF. Still waiting for them.

[–] GuiltyBand9640@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh, well then, congratulations on your purchase. When they will come?

Niot really on sale, but I managed to convince my gf to get Beyers DT770 Pro. And she's ejnoying them even though they're not white as she wanted.

[–] TheXingKaiZhang@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago
[–] derechoeagle@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Ordered me a pair of HD6XXs. Hoping JDS Labs has a sale but I’m not holding out hope

[–] SweetCans928@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I got Oriolus Isabellae...so far. And with some of these discounts, I'm thinking of maybe going big or going home with a summit-fi purchase...although I recently got the Noble Spartacus and it is AMAZING(hard to imagine anything sounding significantly better).

I got the Hexa + Dawn Pro lol (I don’t really need it since I have IE200, Aria, EA500, but I REALLY wanted to try something new…something different)

[–] Shot_Goblin@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I picked up an xDuoo TA-30 and some Drop MrSpeakers Ether CX closed backs! Super excited for them

[–] MistaExplains@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)
