Need to block out your family's holiday cheer this year? Amazon has a sweet deal on Ultimate Ears noise-isolating earphones today only in the "gold box." They are currently offering the manufacturer's Ultimate Ears Triple.Fi 10 and TripleFi 10vi noise-isolating earphones for 75 percent off the list price. Here are two links:
NOTE: Although Amazon is out of stock currently, it looks like they are still honoring the $99.99 price on the Triple.Fi 10 via the above link (12/04/09 only). So if you're willing to wait for delivery a bit, you may still be able to get the deal! If you don't see the $99.99 price, then look on the right side of the page under "More Buying Choices" to add this to your card from Amazon.com as the seller. Offer good 12/4 only!
Both units are TripleFi, meaning they direct each of the low, mid and high frequencies to a separate speaker -- for a total of three in each ear. The company says it's patented. We say it's awesome. Each also has a frequency range of 10Hz - 20kHz and blocks outside noise up to 26 dB.
If you're trying to decide between the two, the big difference is that the TripleFi 10vi has a microphone, so in between songs on your iPhone or BlackBerry, you can make calls.
This is one of Amazon's Gold Box deals, which means you have to be quick, because it's only available today. Act now and they will also ship it for free.
