Perks and Rec: Our favorite headphones are on sale

There are a whole bunch of headphones on sale at Amazon today, and we’re fully on board. The best pair we’ve ever tried, the Sony WH-1000XM5, are $50 off today—it’s a rare discount on a great noise-canceling set, and our editor says they’re “worth the investment.” We also found great deals on AirPods, Beats and our favorite affordable ear buds, too.  

Now that you have your headphones, let’s find something to listen to. Right now, you can sign up for an extended free trial of Audible, Amazon’s audiobook platform. Whether you choose a memoir, a best-selling rom-com or a cozy fantasy, we hope you enjoy your next read. 

Happy shopping,
