Woot Just Dropped the Dyson Zone Headphones to a New Record-Low Price

Don’t miss the chance to save 63% on these high-end Dyson headphones.

Most know Dyson for hair tools like the viral Airwrap or their powerful vacuums, but the brand also keeps up with other players in the audio market. Of course, the lofty price is always a sticking point (regardless of the Dyson product), but that has changed for a limited time. The new Dyson Zone active noise-canceling headphones are now 63% off, reducing the cost to $260 from its usual $700. We don’t see discounts this massive every day, so this one might not last long.

For $260, you can get a blue pair with eight noise-canceling microphones, custom EQ, intelligent signal processing and full-spectrum clarity for optimized, clear sound. The cups are also designed to rest softly on your ears, thanks to micro-suede cushions.

If you live in a city or commute often, you’ll appreciate the attachable visor that delivers purified air to your nose and mouth without touching your face. Speaking of being on the move, the battery will last up to 50 hours with just audio and noise cancelation, or 4 hours when the air purification feature is active — perfect for busy days.

Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.

This smart device also lets you monitor air quality and tweak settings using the MyDyson app. At $440 off, this is one of those rare deals that don’t come around often. Still, if you think this discount isn’t for you, check out our list of the best headphones deals to explore some more options.

Why this deal matters

Dyson is known for precise engineering, and it shows with this pair of headphones.

So, if you’ve been looking to upgrade, this is your chance to score the Dyson headphones at a new low price.

Your goal is to find hidden words that fit the puzzle’s theme. If you’re stuck, find any words you can. Every time you find three words of four letters or more, Strands will reveal one of the theme words. These are the words I used to get those hints but any words of four or more letters that you find will work:

Answers for today’s Strands puzzle

These are the answers that tie into the theme. The goal of the puzzle is to find them all, including the spangram, a theme word that reaches from one side of the puzzle to the other.
