- kasey_junk 8mo agoWhat high quality wired headphones (that you’d drive with a dedicated amp and have a replaceable cable) cost $55?
- tptacek 8mo agoFor context, I was generally using H6's, HD-280s, and HD-550s (when open-ear "ear-mounted speakers" are OK). The price point here is $100-$300. All of them have replaceable cables, but none of them are standard cables, so you have to stockpile extra cables for them. The audio quality difference between that class of headphone and Airpods Max is within the threshold of "speaker cable differences". All 4 of them put you in territory where source quality and delivery is the primary issue.
