Amazon’s unheard-of price cut on Klipsch R5 Neckband earbuds is for today only

Klipsch R5 Neckband Earbuds

— $69 off

Amazon’s daily deal on Klipsch R5 Neckband earbuds had us wondering if we were reading it correctly. Comfortable and great-looking, for Saturday only, Amazon reduced the price of the Klipsch R5 by 58%, saving lucky buyers $69.

Whether you’re buying a gift for Father’s Day, a graduation present, a late Mother’s Day present (she won’t mind waiting a day when the R5 Neckband arrives on Monday), or if you want to upgrade your comfort and listening experience, don’t wait because this deal ends at 11:59 P.M. PST.

The Klipsch R5 Neckband lies comfortably around the back of your neck. If an earbud pops out or you take one out, it won’t get lost or possibly broken by falling to the floor. The earbuds attach to the neckband and remain tethered when they’re not in your ears. You also avoid the hassle and aggravation of wired headsets that plug into a smartphone or other device.

Even if you don’t count the stylish appearance of the hand-stitched edge-treated leather covering that looks even better as it ages, the Klipsch R5 Neckband earbuds tick all three important boxes for wireless headsets: sound quality, comfort, and battery life.

Klipsch’s new 5mm micro drivers, one in each earbud, deliver solid, full sound. You don’t have to compromise on listening quality to have earbuds small enough to stay in your ears comfortably. When calls come in, the left side of the neckband vibrates against your collar bone. You can answer calls by touching the right side of the neckband and use the integrated cVc noise-canceling microphone for the call.

The R5’s soft oval contoured silicon tips sit comfortably in your ear canal and make a seal for sound isolation and excellent bass. The neckband features soft leather and the earbuds feel great and sound great. The Klipsch R5 Neckband is IPX4 splash-proof and unphased by high humidity.

The neckband form factor affords Klipsch the space to hold a single lithium-ion battery that allows you to play music and talk on the phone for more than 8 hours.

Normally priced at $119, the Klipsch R5 Neckband is just $50 for today, Saturday, May 11 only as an Amazon daily deal. If you want a premium set of Bluetooth earbuds for listening to streaming content and for making and taking phone calls, with the added benefit of much better than average battery life, jump on this opportunity to buy at more than half off the regular price.

What is spatial audio? The 3D sound experience fully explained
Person listening to spatial audio using Apple AirPods Max headphones.

Since Apple added “spatial audio” to the Apple Music streaming service and the AirPods family of wireless earbuds and headphones in 2021, it feels like you can’t read about new audio products or services without running into that term. And just a few short years later, it’s seemingly everywhere.

This has led to a lot of misconceptions about what spatial audio is, how it works, and why you need to hear it for yourself. People often ask, “If Apple created spatial audio, why are other companies claiming they do it, too?” The answer is that Apple didn’t create it, and you certainly don’t need to own its products to experience spatial audio.

How to download music from SoundCloud on desktop and mobile
Soundcloud Interface on a Macbook.

If you’re a huge music fan, you’ve probably combed through the many playlists, artists, and albums of your Spotify or Apple Music subscription. But what about all the indie artists of the world? Some music-streaming platforms are better than others at celebrating the
‘unsung gem’ acts, but one of the most reliable forums for new, off-the-grid tunes is SoundCloud.

Founded in 2007, SoundCloud has always prioritized music that’s a bit under the radar. With over 320 million tracks in its library, the platform will even let you download a majority of its songs and albums.

The best kids headphones of 2024: for fun, safety, and sound
Two kids using the Puro Sound PuroQuiet Plus to watch something on a tablet.

Kid-friendly consumer tech is all the rage these days, so it’s no surprise that there’s an entire market of headphones designed exclusively for young ones. But when we think “kid-friendly,” sometimes we imagine products that are built to be a bit more throwaway than their adult counterparts. That’s not the case with the products on our list of the best headphones for kids, though.

We want our child-tailored headphones to include parental-controlled volume limiters, to ensure our children aren’t harming their eardrums. Pretty much every entry on our list checks this vital box, but we also wanted to point you and yours toward products that offer exceptional noise-canceling, built-in mics for phone and video calls, and long-lasting batteries for schooldays or a long flight.
