Holiday gifting has officially begun, and you don’t have to wait for Black Friday to score some never-before-seen deals.

The Bose QuietComfort (2nd Gen) over-ear headphones have only been on the market since the beginning of August, and right now, you can score them at their lowest price ever — just $199, down from $359.

Where the more expensive Bose QuietComfort Ultra (a Made It Here award winner) used to be the only over-ear pair from Bose that offered immersive audio, this new pair brings that premium feature to the more affordable offering utilizing Bose’s TrueSpatial Technology.

That comes in addition to noise cancellation, which Commerce Reporter Nishka Dhawan says is among the best she’s experienced. Of course, it also has an Aware Mode in addition to the new Immersion and Cinema modes.

Aside from the high quality sound, Dhawan noted that this pair really shines in the comfort department.

“They’re built for all-day wear, and not once did my ears complain about having a pair of headphones stuck to them for hours,” she wrote. “People also stopped me in my tracks to ask about the headphones themselves, with many mesmerized by the striking design, which easily told me these function great as an accessory to any outfit.”
