Now I have to brave the audiophile forums and talk to people who insist that spending any less than $500 on some placebo shit with a fancy case is unthinkable.
Audiophiles are funny to observe but annoying to interact with when you actually need to get useful information out of them.
I wonder what the psychology is behind that tendency to suggest the most pointless overpriced stuff. Do they all get duped into overspending and recommending otherwise requires them to admit their mistake?
The ones I'm using at the moment cost about $20 and lasted about 4 years. They were fine but now the right ear is buzzing.
Are there any other earbud users on rdrama? What sort do you have?

I have some AirPods I got as a present and they're really great.
@HalloMimwee can help you find a really good pair of headphones as he's a bit of an audiophile. These are the ones he uses AKG Pro Audio K712 PRO Over-Ear, Open-Back, Flat-Wire, Reference Studio Headphones https://a.co/d/6njOrvT

I would never wear those in public lmao. Both because they require an amp, leak sound like heck, and also because they make you look like a peepee. Great for listening at home, though

@arseupwrongo get some cheap Chifi buds from Moondrop or something, obviously China has a bad rap but they've been coming up in the last few years, frfr
