Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days is on its last day, and we're still seeing some colossal discounts on some superb audio gear. Yesterday, Amazon slashed the price of the Sony WH-CH720N down to £79 (from £99 RRP), but it's now had a few more pennies shaved off these brilliant five-star wireless over-ear headphones.

We'd recommend these Sony headphones to any buyer on the hunt for a superb set of wireless cans that provide great noise cancelling and punchy sound on a tight budget. They're fun, they're feature-laden, and, now more than ever, they won't leave you feeling like a large dent has been made in your bank account.

Now down to just £75 at Amazon if you buy the black finish, this is a serious drop considering these cans only came out a few months ago. You'll need to be quick though, as this lowest-ever price won't stick around for too long!

The Sony WH-CH720N are the thinking man's choice if you're after a pair of reliable, well-made and super-sounding over-ear headphones that give you decent ANC without excessive expenditure. Released as a step up from the ultra-budget-but-brilliant Sony WH-CH520, the CH720N are a lot of headphone for a small outlay.

The CH720N have delivered exactly what Sony intended. For under £100, they’re a dependably made, enthusiastic-sounding pair of headphones that, while occasionally straying into the realm of enthusiastic bass, deliver good ANC and a strong feature set to the mid-to-low price end of the wireless headphone market.

That £24 drop in price represents a significant saving, too, pushing what was already a very reasonable retail price down by more than 20%. For those of us who want our pennies to really go the distance, you can't go far wrong with the CH720N.

This discount certainly won't be around for long, though, as this Amazon Prime Big Deal Days ends today and will potentially rise again to pre-sale levels. The quicker you act, the more you save!
