I'm currently using 2 x 24" monitors, and looking to upgrade to just one ultrawide monitor instead in my studio. I'd be keen to buy one now if there are good EOFY sale options. Hoping to spend less than $500, and size wise i'm not super sure but given i'm used to the two 24inchers it would be good if was pretty big - maybe mid 30s?
Seeking recommendation for ultrawide monitor for audio production studio (and are they on sale for EOFY)?

Thanks - that Dell option does look great but the site won't load. Guessing there's some demand there. Will look into the Kogan one (though i'm always wary of Kogan stuff, as others are too I think).
I bought a 34inch LG ultrawide (34wk500-P). It very basic and only 2560 x 1080 21:9 but I managed to get one from computer alliance on eBay for only $320. It seems they are more expensive now though.
I really like it and the software is easy to use and setupThat looks great - can't believe you got it for $320. Would pick one up for that for sure.
The 29 inch version of this is $199 at kogan at the moment
Dell 34" 3440x1440 curved IPS, $510 shipped. Do note it's a refurb.

Alternatively you can try the Kogan 34" ultrawide although you might've missed the big discounts last month it's still one of the cheapest options out there.
It got decent reviews
I used dual 24 inches just like you but upgraded to a 35 inch ASUS XG35VQ. Dropped about $890 on it and it's serving me quite well for productivity usage (usually 2 or 3 windows side by side by side). You don't have to spend that much as I did, since 34~35 inch LCD's can be found for the $500 mark nowadays.
