MEElectronics Cyber Monday Deal: M-Duo or A151P 2nd Gen Hi-Fi Earphones: US $32.99 + $6 Postage

CM2014

Hi All,

Mike here yet again. I've told everyone who asked for price matches on the M-Duo earphones in the past few weeks (past deals can be seen here) to wait until Cyber Monday, so here is our promised Cyber promotion.

This is a very special promo on our two flagship in-ear earphones - the M-Duo and A151P - for two reasons. First, it's the lowest price we've sold them at, ever. Second, it coincides with the official release of a new and improved version of the A151P - the A151P 2nd Generation!

Utilizing the new Knowles SR-31843 balanced armature drivers, the A151P 2nd Generation delivers better treble energy and extension for crisper, more realistic sound with improved detail resolution. It is one of our most accurate earphones ever, and also features a new heavy-duty L-shaped plug and redesigned mic/remote.

More info:

M-Duo Dual Dynamic Driver In-Ear Headset (reg price: $49.99)
* two dynamic drivers and a crossover circuit in each earpiece for extended bass response
* dual-layer metal construction for durability
* noise-isolating in-ear design
* inline mic and remote for headset use and track control
* comes with protective carrying case and 6 sets of eartips

A151P Second Generation Balanced Armature In-Ear Headset (reg price: $49.99)
* balanced armature drivers with flat, accurate sound tuning
* lightweight twisted cable and over-the-ear form factor
* noise-isolating in-ear design
* inline mic and remote for headset use and track control
* comes with protective carrying case and 5 sets of eartips

Link to deal page. Coupon code is "CM2014". Limit 2 per order. Mix-and-matching welcome. Some quantities are limited - valid while supplies last. Valid Cyber Monday (12/1) & Tuesday (12/2) only (PST).

Shipping to Australia is $6 total ($8.95 with an additional $2.95 discount) and does not increase if you buy 2 units (so the total cost is $38.99 for one and $71.98 for two). Delivery times vary but are typically between 10 and 20 business days for standard shipping. FedEx shipping is also available and delivers in just a few days (if you want to order via FedEx and split shipping with a few people, drop me a PM or email so I can raise the quantity limit for you).

As always, I will gladly answer any questions as best I can in the comments below. I can also be contacted by private message or by email at mike(at)s2einc(dot)com

Thanks for reading!

    Never had the m-duo but the a151are a great headphone for the price.
    Great service too and postage has always been quicker that expected

  • Nothing for the Runaways, Mike?

    • Pretty much sold out, waiting for a new shipment.

  • Af-62?

    • Will do on OzBargain exclusive on these later on as they get requested quite a lot.

  • How does the new A151p compare to the (apparently EOL) A161p? I understand the A161p was your flagship at the time

    • +1

      The new A151P 2nd Gen is actually right between the A161P and the old A151P in performance. It doesn't quite have the bass punch of the A161P but has better bass quality than the old A151P. Treble is not as laid-back and "dark" as it was with the old A151P, but still more smooth than it was on the A161P. The midrange is a little more "forward" on the A151 (both versions) than the A161.

      We don't intend to bring out a higher-end BA earphone so the decision was made to bump up the performance of the A151P as much as possible and just keep it at $50 for value since we have no higher-end model for it to hurt.

  • Anyone know how these compare to the Xiaomi piston 2.1 ?

  • Mike, can the 2nd gen A151Ps be worn cable down?

    • Technically, yes, but I don't usually recommend it - they won't look as nice and the fit won't be as secure.

  • $30 + 9 shipping US

    • huh?

      Shipping & Handling: $8.95

      and

      Cyber Monday Free Shipping! [EP-A151P-BK-MEE] 1 -$2.95

      that reduces the shipping cost to $6. If you buy 2 items, it will still only apply once to reduce the shipping cost to $6.

      • nah mine was $9 shipping but it doesn't really matter as the earphones were $30

        • your screen grab is correct, maybe you interpreted it wrong

          headphones is 32.99 + 6 postage

          same as in title: MEElectronics Cyber Monday Deal: M-Duo or A151P 2nd Gen Hi-Fi Earphones: US $32.99 + $6 Postage

        • @solofoxtrot: i see what you mean

  • For the uneducated, whats the difference between the two ?
    I generally listen to a wide range of music, more focused on clarity at low volumes. I have previously got a set of Wood R1's
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R1tMYKW3CPU
    Was really disappointed with their sound at low volumes, sounded ok when you turned them up but ended up sticking with my $5 logitech ultimate ears for everyday use as I normally only have 1 ear piece in and have it turned right down.

    Thanks

    • Those R1s are a blast from the past. I have very little hands-on experience with them (they were discontinued in 2011 or maybe 2012) but didn't really like them - too much bass, not enough clarity. For clarity and low-volume performance the A151P is the one to get. In that use scenario your really don't want enhanced bass potentially obscuring anything.

      • Thank you for the prompt response, Might pick up a set of the A151P's and see if I can finally retire the UE's

      • Btw had to log in to place an order, can't have discontinued the R1 woodies in 2012 as order date was 09/28/2013

  • +1

    Got the Duo's in the last deal for $40 and absolutely love them. Come with plenty of different shaped and sized earbuds, in a great little carry pouch and most importantly sound brilliant.

    Mike you're a legend

    • Thanks!

  • Has anybody used these l really hate wires? Sport-Fi® X6 Stereo Bluetooth Wireless Sports In-Ear Headphone with Memory Wire

  • any chance there will be a special on the m6/m6p sports range?

    • Sorry, not until we get a new shipment - currently all but sold out due to holiday rush.

    • +1

      Just FYI, Amazon is running a lightning deal on these for the next ~3 hours at a great price: http://www.amazon.com/MEElectronics-Sport-Fi-Isolating-In-Ea… . Shipping is about $6 to Australia from what I could tell.

  • Hi Mike, is the special you mentioned about the x6's still going to happen this week so we can get them by xmas?

    • +5

      Yes, I just didn't want to run more than one deal concurrently and risk our warehouse workers spiking my drink with arsenic at the Christmas party.

      • Haha fair enough

  • I bought a pair of these and to be honest. I was not impressed at all. I did not find them worth the value at all…

  • Hi mike, for the M-Duo, is the casing made of plastic or metal? Ive had some earphones before that look pretty similar in design, but were metal and they kept falling out because they weighed to much. Can you also confirm that the cable length is the same on both ear, and not one of those ones where it is much longer on one side. Cheers

    • Its aluminum. Not too heavy, but heavier compared to plastic ones like the A151P.

      The cable on our earphones is symmetrical - what you're talking about (uneven lengths) is called a j-cord. We don't like those.

  • Hi there,

    Do any of these models come with a volume control for the iPhone or just the button to hang up/answer?

    • No volume control. Just the main button for call control and play/pause/skip/back and Siri.

  • +2

    Any deals coming up for the Air-Fi® Matrix2?

    • +2

      Will do on OzBargain exclusive on these later on this week as they get requested quite a lot.

    • After an mandatory timeout was finally able to post one here: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/173717

    Seriously tempted to buy another pair as a backup. I love the Duos so much!

  • How does the Duo compare to Sennheiser MX 300's?

    I used them a few years ago, and loved them… Then the dog literally chewed it.

    • Can't really comment on another manufacturer's sound (maybe someone else can) but I will admit that ours are not dog-proof either.

      • Thanks Mike,

        Ordered a Duo and one of the other 2nd Gen.

        Appreciate being able to deal directly with the company.

        Cheers.

        • Having one of each will be an interesting contrast. Thanks!

  • Bought a pair of A151P Second Generation Balanced Armature In-Ear Headset, thank you.

    I really appreciate having a store rep who is obviously knowledgable & enthusiastic about the product being sold and seems to tell it straight as they see it. It makes a big change from some of the audiophile stupidity that is bandied about to try and sell something and it made the decision to buy from you very easy.

    • +1

      Thanks, I very much appreciate that. It's very much a two-way street - I've also really enjoyed participating and engaging with OzBargainers on such a close level in the past year!

  • Wanted to try some M Duos however also wanted to try AirFi Matrix 2 but don't like the idea of doubling up on postage. Mike, is there anyway to have this pricing available when you do the Air Fi deal this week?

    • Yeah, just send me a PM and we'll figure out a way to double it up. Probably will have to generate a new code for you.

    • After an mandatory timeout was finally able to post one here: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/173717 . If you still want to get one with the M-Duo, just send me an email or PM any time.
