thread to talk about headphones and stuff ive had a pair of AirPods Pro for a year now, I use them at work, they’re ok I guess. I can’t put my finger on it quite but I feel like everything sounds a little distant and not as crisp as it could be- definitely because of the Bluetooth compression but also, well, they’re earbuds. I don’t understand the psychoacoustic or whatever differences between in ear and over ear headphones. I also have a hyperx cloud headset I got on recommendation from YouTube personality dankpods. been using them a bit more lately and they sound. so much better than the AirPods. $79 versus whatever triple digits I paid for the AirPods. they definitely fill different roles though, can’t really use wired headphones while doing computer janitor stuff. I also have some old Logitech speakers that sound pretty good for pc speakers. the subwoofer is too loud on the lowest setting so you know it’s good. I’ll have to take a look at my living room sound system because my wife set it up but it also sounds pretty good. anyway what kind of sennheisers or grados or mezes do yall in figgieland have, I’m interested

idk I'm one of those people who appreciates nice things but can also find pleasure in the mediocre... which is why airpods pro are kinda uncanny because they are super expensive for something that sounds passable at best

I’ve experienced very little/no hearing loss as I’ve aged

over ears are the most comfortable as well

echinopsis posted:one thing that feels a bit embarassing to mention but gently caress it, is that I tend to listen to the same music I always have rather than seeking out new music. I mean I do sometimes but I know some people pretty much always listening to new and different music whereas I usually listen to stuff I know quite well. Apple Music’s new music playlist has actually been sporadically good at expanding my horizons. I’ve picked up Roosevelt, Yumi Zouma and Kainalu among others, some of my favorite music in there now I don’t tend to seek out new stuff very often though.

I also stopped caring about full albums and just stick the songs I like in one big playlist

also wrong. the best headphones were made in 1979

I think it's reasonable to spend $800 on headphones if you have the money, but you're already way into diminishing returns up there
