While the end-of-year season typically isn’t heralded as a prime time for bargains — that honor usually goes to events like Prime Day and Black Friday — 2024 seems to be an exception. Currently, a substantial selection of high-quality headphones is available at remarkably reduced prices (as indicated by various price-monitoring websites). Renowned brands such as Beats, AirPods, Bose, and Sony are offering discounts of up to 51% on their flagship models right now. This makes it one of the most significant sales events for headphones this year.
