Prime Big Deal Days is coming just mere months after Amazon's July Prime Day event. On October 8 and 9, the retailer will unleash a barrage of deals on just about everything you can imagine. While Amazon usually showcases its own products and services during the Prime Day event, plenty of other brands join in on the fun too.

Ahead of Prime Big Deal Days, we're tracking deals on headphones and speakers. Historically, we've seen some of our favorite headphones drop down to their lowest prices during Prime Day. With Amazon's October Prime Day just two weeks away, there are some deals available now, but we're still holding out for more.

Right now you can find savings on Apple, Soundcore by Anker, and Sony, however, we're still waiting on bigger price drops to come on Bose headphones. Plus, with Apple's recent AirPod drop, we're eager to see if any of these new models will dip below full-price.

If you can't wait to start shopping, here are the early Prime Big Deal Day deals on headphones and speakers.

Best noise-cancelling headphone deal

Apple AirPods Max
$429.00 at Amazon
$549.00 Save $120.00

Why we like it

AirPods Max are stylish headphones with easy connectivity to boot. Just like the rest of the AirPods collection, the AirPods Max connect to iOS devices just by turning them on, plus you don't need an auxiliary app to control them. While AirPods Max aren't in our round-up of best headphones, we'll still sing their merits as they possess excellent audio quality and good battery life.

A big hang-up we have with the AirPods Max is their price tag because at $549, you can find headphones with the same quality for far cheaper. However, when the AirPods Max are on sale, we're all in. Ahead of Prime Big Deal Days, you can get the AirPods Max for $429, saving $120 for 22% off. This is just $50 short of their lowest price ever.
