One of the best noise-canceling headphones, the Bose QuietComfort 25, is on sale

Quality headphones can get pretty pricey, with many premium pairs ringing in at well over $300. If you’re a dedicated audiophile, though, then spending the money for a good pair is more than worth it, and Bose makes some of the most premium cans in the business (with prices to match).

One of its best pairs is the Bose QuietComfort 25, which remains among our favorite noise-canceling headphones on the market today. They’re not cheap, however, with a current sticker price of $200. For a limited time, you can score a pair for just $140 from Rakuten with a limited-time discount code, which is possibly the best deal we’ve seen for these headphones since the Prime Day sale earlier this year.

The Bose QuietComfort 25 headphones were introduced in 2014 as an update to the excellent QC15. They’re wired headphones, with a 3.5mm connection and compatibility with pretty much all of your tech, from computers to mobile devices. The cable includes an in-line remote with a mic for use with smartphones, with this model being built for Android. (Note that these headphones can also be used for Apple devices, although the media playback buttons on the in-line remote won’t work.)

What’s most notable about the Bose QC25 – aside from their deep sound and excellent build quality – is that these headphones are noise-canceling. This closed design blocks out sound from your environment, making the QuietComfort 25 ideal for travel (if you like to have something beefier than earbuds when you’re on the go) or for use in a busy work environment. The lightweight construction and around-ear fit also make the Bose QC25 headphones comfortable to wear for hours at a time.

The Bose QuietComfort 25 noise-canceling headphones had a sticker price of $300 when they were first released a few years back, and currently have a street price of around $180-$200 – still not very cheap. Now, however, you can score a pair for just $140 from Rakuten with the checkout code SAVE15, which knocks 15 percent ($25) off of the sale price for a limited time for a total combined discount of $60.

Should you buy headphones on Black Friday or wait for Cyber Monday?

Black Friday is a great time to pick up some headphones, but the fear of missing out makes some of us worry about clicking on that 'checkout now' button. So, let's consider whether it's worth waiting until Cyber Monday and look at some great headphone deals available now.
Should you buy headphones on Black Friday?
While Cyber Monday will likely have a lot of the same headphone deals as Black Friday, you're better off not waiting for Cyber Monday to pick a deal up. The truth is, you aren't likely to fund much better deals, if at all, so it's best to grab the Black Friday headphone deals that you like rather than potentially missing out by waiting. Plus, if you find a great Cyber Monday deal, you should be in the Black Friday refund window, where you can get your money back and buy the newer and better deal.

Sony WH-CH710N -- $68, was $150

While many folks may be familiar with Sony due to the Playstation consoles, many may not realize that Sony is also a massive player in the audio industry, including headphones. Take these Sony WH-CH710N; while they're mid-range headphones at bargain-bin prices, their audio quality is surprisingly good. Granted, it's not going to be as good as higher-end headsets, but it's not meant to be, especially since it costs less than a quarter of their price. That's to say; it's dependable audio across the board that you won't regret. Surprisingly, you even get Artificial Intelligence Noise Cancellation (AINC), a lower-end version of Active Noise Cancellation technology (ANC). It works for what it is, but it's not going to block out more jarring sounds like your neighbor drilling into your shared wall.
