Why buy wireless headphones to begin with? I've had a pair of wired Audio Technica headphones for the past 5 years and have had no issues at all. Ear pads are user replaceable, headphone cable is detachable and standard, and I can use whatever DAC/amp I want (or just plug it straight into a device). Wireless just seems like a downgrade in every way
- disiplus 6y agoI have a nice akgs wired headphones, but every time I stand up or move i pull on the cable or have to remove them. with my Bluetooth headphones I can go to kitchen grab something and go back quickly.

- core-questions 6y agoBut not musicians (the latency makes it unusable), so the target market for extreme audio quality will be elsewhere, buying conventional analogue wired Audio-Technicas or Sennheisers; and not people exercising (they'll fall off your head), so the target market for that will be buying smaller earbuds. I have a pair of AT's that happens to have Bluetooth and the only time I've used it is when mowing the lawn as a sort of ear protection with podcasts as a side benefit. Shitty audio quality would have been fine for this situation! The market for this is the same thing as the market for a Gucci purse, basically, and that's fine, who cares; let it be for those people.
- bsdetector 6y agoGet wired headphones, attach a $10 bluetooth to wired adapter, bundle up the wires onto the head strap. It's in some ways lesser than AirPods Max, but it's hundreds of dollars cheaper, you can choose the ear shape and quality that you want, and it lasts forever.
