Bose is among our favorite audio brands here at WIRED. That’s largely thanks to its products that consistently deliver crisp, detailed sound and reliable designs. But because Bose’s premium products tend to come with premium prices, I’m always on the lookout for sales and deals. Today, I was in luck: Many of the brand’s best headphones, speakers, and soundbars are on steep discount. Notably, the Bose QuietComfort Headphones (2nd Gen) are at their lowest price ever.

QuietComfort Headphones (2nd Gen)
This is the lowest price ever for these headphones, and their first major discount since launching over the summer. The price of the black colorway is fluctuating right now, but if you are flexible on the color you get, you may be able to snag a better deal. I’ve seen various colors go for between $199 and $219.
In my review of these headphones, one of my major gripes was price, as they float in a strange middle ground between midrange and premium. That concern flies out the window with this discount.

The One Deal I Would Avoid
The Bose QuietComfort Headphones (1st Gen) are also on sale right now for $169, down from $359. For $30 more (depending on colorway), you can get the new second-generation version. If you can swing it, I would splurge for the upgrade.
