Black Friday has come and gone, but the best deals of the year are still going on through Cyber Monday and the rest of what has now been dubbed Cyber Week. Mike Etchart opens the show with a few holiday shopping season forecast statistics for 2018 that may surprise you. Then, we discuss the history of headphones with Brent Butterworth from Wirecutter. Next, Brent tells us about a $50 pair of headphones that you can't pass up from Tribit, the XFree Tune, and why journalist have such a hard time touring the Chinese factories that make all of our favorite electronics. Cranking up the volume, we chat about the secret, dark art of noise canceling headphones, and why the Anker Soundcore Space NC may be the best bang for your 100 bucks on the market. Closing the show, Brent fills us in on the Puro Sound Labs headphones and his top pick for portable bluetooth speakers - the Tribit XBoom. Don't miss this episode if you're in the market for some new sound!
