Black Friday, the annual deals extravaganza, is here and has gone straight into overdrive, which means you can take advantage of great savings and, in some cases, the lowest prices on some amazing pairs of headphones.
Retailers like Amazon are awash with headphone deals, but it’s fair to say that a chunk of them aren’t really worth your time or energy, despite how the prices might look. The beauty of this live hub is that it only contains deals that we can really get behind, following our time testing and living with a wide range of headphones.
We might mention a pair or two that you should avoid, but we’ll always counter that with a comparative pair that we would recommend instead.
If you have any questions about any of the deals or products we’re recommending in this hub, jump over to our Black Friday 2025 Live Q&A, where you can chat directly with our experts. Check out the current best hi-fi deals below.

The headphones of the year have dropped another £50 to their lowest price ever
Now here's a deal for you. The Sony WH-1000XM6 only launched a few months ago, and promptly picked up a five-star review from us. They then went on to win not only an Award, but Product of the Year. And now they're cheaper than ever.
They've fallen by £100 in the Silver finish to £299 at Amazon. The Black and Midnight Blue finishes are discounted too, but cost £1 more.
That's still an epic deal, bringing them £50 cheaper than earlier in the week, and £29 less than their previous best price. Go go go!

The award-winning Sony WF-C710N wireless earbuds have fallen to their lowest-ever price and not on Amazon!
The Sony WF-C710N wireless earbuds are some of the best wireless ANC buds that we've tested for under £100. They're comfortable, great-sounding and offer decent noise cancellation for their price.
We tested them at £100 and thought they were excellent. Now, thanks to this Black Friday deal at Smart Home Sounds, they're more than 25% off our testing price. At £74, that's £1 less than Amazon is selling them for too.
If you're after a bargain on some high-performing, budget earbuds, this could be the deal you need.
Bargains on five-star headphones
We know that headphones fly off the online shelves during the Black Friday sales, and if you've been saving up all year to bag a bargain, you're in luck.
Sony has a raft of five-star headphones and wireless that are enjoying some great discounts, as are Bose, Bowers & Wilkins and Sennheiser, while there are some great deals on wired headphones, too.
Here's a selection of our favourite headphone deals right now:
Sonos Ace wireless headphones have hit a record low price, but...
This is an interesting one. You see, we tested the Sonos Ace wireless headphones back when they first launched back in June last year.
Back then, they cost £449, but thanks to Black Friday, they are now sitting at a record low price of £219. Now, on paper, this looks like a bit of a no-brainer.
However, the key criticisms in our three-star Sonos Ace review still stand – they just don't sound as entertaining or as musical as the class leaders, and both their noise-cancelling and call quality are only average.
The class leaders we are talking about include the Sony WH-1000XM5, which can be yours for £200. Despite the Sonos boasting better build quality and matching them on battery life, our money would still go on the Sonys.
