Spotted these over at the Qantas marketplace, might be a price error as the White are $594.
This price is an ATL and if these are honored its a cracking deal especially if you are part of the Sonos ecosystem.

When you tell her put these on and pretend she's praising you for the great deal this is… :D
Time to get a new wife
I got one each for both my wife and her boyfriend. I don't get any complaints this way.
Thanks mate. Remember to include the invoice so i can claim TRS next month
Laura?
ordered. hope the deal is honoured! thanks OP
I have always wanted it but would never have purchased. Too many headphones.
Ordered with Qantas points. Cheers OP.
The Qantas points are worth way more than $384. Can easily sell for 1c on classifieds worst case.
I would literally buy them for 1c each and with the proceeds you could buy yourself 1.46 headphones.
Yeah right.
Just pulled the trigger as I didn’t want to purchase or spend any dollar in first place. And who knows tnis deal’s gonna end by the time encash Qantas points.
Fair enough, I’ve done the same before
I'm kinda glad people are buying products off qantas marketplace, means less competition for rewards flights - have booked 12 J and F flights in the last 2 weeks to burn up points before august devaluation.
50,328 points with Points Club plus …
Killer deal!
ordered mine with card
Damn, I was just at JB Hi-Fi 2 hours ago, lol!
I checked out the Sony XM5, Sennheiser M4, Bose QC, Dyson OnTrac, and these Sonos Ace. I found the Sennheisers to be flimsy, albeit comfortable. The Dyson set was overkill and way too heavy. The Bose felt kinda meh both to wear and to listen through.
I was torn between the Sony XM5 and the Sonos Ace. The Sonos Ace had better ear coverage, though it felt a bit heavier than the XM5s. I also saw on Reddit that XM5s are breaking around the connector cuffs, and the XM6 FTC filings show it has the same connector, so I decided to go with the Sonos Ace instead.
I almost pulled the trigger on the Ace, but the 30% off seemed kinda meh. Then I came home, checked OzBargain, and look what I see, LOL. Thanks, OP, I decided to grab one!
return the others if not opened
All good, i almost pulled the trigger but i didnt. I pulled it once i got home and saw this deal :)!
For noise cancelling headphones, Sony is the queen. No one else is comparable.
I'm not an audiophile, to be honest they both good to me. Felt like the Sonos had a better cuff fit.
The Bose felt kinda meh both to wear and to listen through.
That's a pretty contentious statement around these parts! XD
I've been trying various headphones every time I go past a JB Hifi or other vendors, but it's a difficult task - only the mid / top of the range models are on 'display' and most of those you can only listen to demo music (which of course is purposefully selected) and through wired connection! Sony & Bose in particular.
But I agree, I wasn't particularly impressed with the Bose QC, iirc.Thanks for sharing your opinons. I had been leaning towards the Momentum 4 if they ever come sub-$300.
The Sony xm-4 and xm-5 sounded great, but couldn't try them with my own music or over bluetooth. Could tell they were a notch above the CH-720 though. But they are beyond my budget.Ye I would of picked the XM5s given the weight it felt so much lighter, but after the many reviews on reddit the hinges breaking after 1-2 years, thats a no go, cant be stuffed doing warranty after 1-2 years for a premium product.
I love my XM3s and the sound quality and NC and connection is still perfect after seven years but the hinges on mine broke within the first month and Sony refused to uphold the warranty. I just wish they would fix this casing issue because I don’t want to go thru it again with XM5s
Don't have any more points. Still purchased as a cracking offer
Site is getting Ozbargained
Annoyed at my qc35ii for dying randomly out of warranty period, have avoided over-ears for sometime - couldn't resist this deal, order confirmed… For now…thx OP
open a case with Bose, they might send you a replacement free of cost
Was tempted the I realised I have better ones; SM4's
Just picked them up using points to see how they fair, will be interesting compare them to my golden QC Ultras.
Ordered, received message that order processed and delivery is coming from JB Hifi on Monday.
I dont know how it works, but i thought qantas marketplace would be their own.
Thanks OP,
Price below $400 is amazongHow did you get them to price match? They wouldn't do it for me because they said it's Qantas marketplace.
I suggest you read what they wrote again..
Ah re-read it. Thanks 🙏
Some of the Qantas tech redemptions are fulfilled by JB I believe.
HN used to do Virgin tech redemptions a few years ago also.
thats fast.. yet to receive delivery email yet..
You might not receive delivery email from Qantas soon, before that you may see messages from jb-hifi about shipment. Thats what happened with me.
Jb hifi is in rush to deliver, while Qantas website show processing
And i also called jb hifi, they mentioned Qantas marketplace is a subscription base , so cannot price match. However delivery is coming from them
thanks ordered. Has to be my biggest buy now-think later purchase ever
You won’t regret it. I have this one, the sound is more immersive than the Bose Ultras
great deal! however I'm after the white ones - anyone know if it's possible to order the black ones then exchange them for white ones via sonos (or JB Hifi which I think is the source store for Qantas Marketplace)
When i asked JB Hifi to price match via online they said it was 'Qantas Marketplace' and they dont match Marketplace lol.
If JB Hifi is the source of Qantas Marketplace, then LOL. As I wanted to pick it up tomorrow.
interesting - previously I got a Sonos Move 2 via Qantas Marketplace and it came with a JB Hifi receipt
Incredible deal and impeccable timing…
Was just browsing around JB Hi-Fi earlier today with family and my dad mentioned he quite liked these after trying them but was really put off by the $699 price tag in store.
Came home and saw this, the timing could not have been better. Thanks OP
I didn't need a pair, but I got one anyway lol
Well I don't have a good set. An old set of sony anc from 5 years ago.Sigh… take my money - the FOMO after reading these comments is real
great price
Thanks. got one for soundbar switch
Thanks OP.
Got oneThanks OP. Didn’t know I needed them, until I did
Thanks OP I normally rotate between my XM5’s & my Bose 700s. Now I can another pair to the rotation 😂
I normally rotate between QC SC (travel, office, ANC) and B&W Px7 S2e (sound quality), let's see if it replaces one. or both
Any good love there sound bar and they look better than the apple 1s
Damn my QC's are only 3 months old from that amazing deal last year. Still had to do it. I have a problem.
Word on the street are that even Sony XM4s sound better than these
Nah nah, i tried myself. Sonos has a upper hand.
I dont know about XM5 or other headphones tho
Down-voted by a bunch of fanboys. RTINGS gave it a 7.3 for Neutral Sound. Not even worth $384.
Thanks OP. Fingers crossed not cancelled..
For those who have it, could you recommend EQ settings? Read they would need to me adjusted
Opinions on where these are on the tier list vs XM4/5 and QCs?
It seems to me the Bose SE is lighter, more comfortable, has better NC and comparable audio quality from a quick search. I can’t see the Sonos is worth that much, even when it’s on sale. Maybe people already in the Sonos ecosystem will value the experience though.
OOS
Lucky me! OOS. Saved $384
Wonder if you could return in store for a swap to the white one given the big price delta online
Odd I still see Low Stock and could add to cart
I'll have to work out how to explain this one to my wife. Thanks for nothing OP.
