The Apple AirPods Pro are marked down to $189.99 on Amazon for their Prime Day sale. (They are normally $249 at the Apple Store on Apple's website, but Amazon often has them for less than that.) I didn't see any Prime membership requirement for getting the discount, but look carefully just to make sure.

There is a lot of other Apple goodies in Prime Day sales today and tomorrow too, including iPads and Macs.

I decided to get the Amazon Echo Buds 2nd gen as they are on sale for Prime Day at $80, marked down from the usual $120. They are not nearly as good as the AirPods Pro, but they are more in my price range. Unfortunately they don't have Spatial Audio, but I doubt I would be able to hear that well enough to take advantage of it anyway. I also think they don’t support Dolby Atmos as I can’t find any reference to Dolby in the specs. (At least I think that is what I read.) I'll give them a try and if they don’t work well enough for my hearing issues I'll return them and try something else later.

ETA: I corrected and clarified a bit of information on the Echo Buds 2nd gen.
