That's right, Prime Big Deal Days, as it's officially known, kicks off today, Tuesday, September 29 and will come to a close next Monday, October 5. As the deals already live are proving, there are massive savings to be found on popular brands including Bose, Sony and Sennheiser, to name a few.

It's fair to say that the prices I've found so far aren't quite as good as those we saw during the main Prime Day back in July, but many come awfully close. Plus, with them being available on Amazon , in many instances, you can have your new headphones arriving at your front door within two days (or sooner) if you have a Prime membership.

And, as experience tells me, fresh deals and prices can appear at any time,
so be sure to check back on this page throughout the sale for all the latest finds. The best Prime Big Deal Days headphone deals in Australia Over-ear headphones Save 30% (AU$38.44) 1More Sonoflow: was AU$129.99 now AU$91.55 at Amazon

If you're looking for a truly cost-effective audio upgrade, the 1More
Sonoflow are up for the task. We praised the comfort, noise cancelling capability and the mammoth 70 hours of battery life in our 1More Sonoflow review . You'll struggle to find better at this price, which is the lowest I've seen in a long time. View Deal Save 29% (AU$50) Anker Soundcore Space One: was AU$169.99 now AU$119.99 at Amazon

Soundcore is another brand that knows how to produce a budget-friendly set of headphones that don't scrimp on quality. Check out our Anker Soundcore Space One review for more info, but they reduce noise by 98% and offer continuous playback of up to 55 hours. In other words, these headphones are perfect for any audiophile and offer a great Beats alternative where looks are concerned.

The companion app also opens up a wealth of customisation and includes a HearID feature that will tailor the sound profile to your personal preference. View Deal Save 37% (AU$109.95) JBL Live 780NC: was AU$299 now AU$189.05 at Amazon

JBL's rather stylish over ears are definitely worth checking out if you want
a touch of style with your music. They also happen to be a top performer, as we said in our review , they are "everything you want in headphones at this level". Only the orange and and purple pairs are discounted. View Deal Save 37% (AU$120.44) Nothing Headphone (a): was AU$329 now AU$208.56 at Amazon

Not only do the Headphone (a) offer a distinctive design, but theyre also crammed with features that make them an utter joy to use.

View Deal Save 46% (AU$205) Bose QuietComfort Headphones: was AU$448 now AU$243 at Amazon

The Bose QuietComfort Headphones are simply stunning and prove why the
company is the king of ANC. They do miss out on some features only found on their Ultra sibling, but for a solid, everyday pair of over-ear cans, you really can't go wrong here. Check our Bose QuietComfort Headphones review for more info.

The 'SC' variant, with a soft case, is also available for the same price.
View Deal Save 62% (AU$384.95) Sennheiser Momentum 4 Wireless: was AU$624.95 now AU$240 at Amazon

Sennheiser has now finally released a newer version of its stunning Momentum headphones, but that only means this fourth-gen model becomes even more affordable. In our five-star Sennheiser Momentum 4 review , we highlighted their effective active noise-cancellation, 60-hours of battery life and excellent sound quality. The best price is on the black model, but other colours get good discounts. View Deal Save 42% (AU$271) Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones (Black): was AU$649 now AU$378 at Amazon

The Bose QuietComfort Ultra are a stunning set of headphones and comfortably the best when it comes to active noise-cancellation.

AU$326 at Amazon

It's not the all-time low price of AU$299 that I saw during the last Prime Day, but any saving on the AirPods Pro 3 is worth mentioning. They offer a much-improved fit over the 2s, class-leading ANC and a wonderful sound profile. If you own an iOS device, they're a no brainer. View Deal Save 29% (AU$51.25) Nothing Ear (3a): was AU$179 now AU$127.75 at Amazon

We're not a fan of the call recording feature, but in all other aspects,
these Nothing earbuds are excellent. Sound quality is exemplary, and there's plenty of tweaking available via the app, and the ANC is effective too. The best price is on the black model, but other colours including yellow and pink also see discounts. View Deal Save 41% (AU$118.95) Bose QuietComfort Earbuds: was AU$289 now AU$170.05 at Amazon

Apple AirPods 4 (ANC): was AU$299 now AU$185 at Amazon

If your budget doesn't quiet stretch to the Pro 3, there's a great discount
on the AirPods 4 with ANC. They're mightily impressive, being able to effectively block out external sounds, despite not fitting in your ear quite as much. The soundstage is excellent, and they support spatial audio. Battery life is decent with five hours on a single charge or 30 hours with the included carry case. View Deal Save 51% (AU$252) Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4 earbuds: was AU$499 now AU$247 at Amazon

We gave these stunning earbuds 4.5 stars out of 5 in our Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4 review , as they have class-leading audio handling and impeccable sound quality that rivals the best wireless earbuds. With balanced sound, effective ANC and a great battery life, these Sennheiser buds will
make any audiophile smile. View Deal Save 34% (AU$168) Technics EAH-AZ100:

They are still expensive for a set of in-ear headphones, we know, but the B&W Pi8 are unlike any pair of earbuds we've heard before. They are exceptionally detailed in their audio delivery and the ANC onboard can comfortably compete with the very best. A number of other useful features only add to their appeal. The best price is on the white and jade green colours. View Deal Open earbuds Save 20% (AU$40) Soundcore AeroClip: was AU$199.99 now AU$159.99 at Amazon

View Deal Save 41% (AU$184.90) Bose Ultra Open Earbuds: was AU$449.95 now AU$265.05 at Amazon

Offering incredible sound according to our review , the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds have all the power and quality youd expect from a Bose-branded item while providing the benefits of an open-ear form factor. The Immersive sound is excellent, and they give up to 7 hours of music. At full price they're certainly a premium investment, but this discount scratches that itch. View Deal Wired earbuds Save 51% (AU$81) 1More Quad Driver in-ear headphones: was AU$159.96 now AU$78.96 at Amazon

This Quad Driver set of earbuds ups the ante over the Triple Driver model , delivering an even more engaging sound that's also better built. We did say their higher price could put people off in our 1More Quad Driver in-ear headphones review , but your money does get you improved performance. View Deal
