Do you think there are any headphones that are buy for life?

Sure there are. Wired ones. Ideally with a detachable cord. If you want to be aware of your surroundings, get some open back ones. I have a bunch of different phones, but my favorite affordable open-backed ones are the Philips SHP9500 which you can find for about $80 online. Super comfortable, accur

bons headphones de entrada pra uso geral?

Pra PC na minha opinião o melhor é o Philips SHP9500, tem muitos vídeos sobre ele por aí, dá uma olhada, o único problema é que ele é aberto e o som vaza muito, por exemplo minha mulher deitada pra dormir escuta minha call no discord kkkkk e também dá pra ouvir os sons de fora, eu particularmente ac

Repair it for life - replacing the headband on my Yamaha headphones

Agreed, these Yamaha MT5s would be in the same range as an Audio-Technica ATH-M50x if i'm not mistaken (and im sure the the audio technicas would have the same headband problem after a few years as well). I haven't yet dabbled in more high-end stuff, but i'm sure you pay for more quality in terms of

Fones para escutar vinil no toca-discos

Meu atual setup para escutar toca discos é também o DOUK T14-EQ e um Philips SHP9500, ambos comprados no AliExpress (sempre de olho no link). Acertou no pré amp pela experiência que eu tive, e o fone é de preferência sua. Eu só gosto de fone Over Ear. Sobre o tipo de fone, aí depende. Tem gente que

I need a gaming headset that isn't going to break itself within a year.

I've been using Sennheiser for years but admit that the Beyerdynamics DT770 are more fun.They're also stupidly comfortable, considering the Sennheisers are comfortable to start. I daily the HD6XX but use the DT770 when I travel or when I get home and want to mix it up. I also can't find the pair any

People are realizing

Never really bought anything pretty expensive but the ones I tried didn’t really last that long. Moondrop Chu 2 - a few months (never buying anything from Moondrop again) Etymotic HF3 - 2 years Simgot EW300 DSP (current) - a few months. Hopefully it doesn’t break soon. I only recently found out that

what headsets are my fellow glasses users wearing?

While not as cute or stylish as I'd like I've been using the Philips shp9500 for 5 years now. For the price they punch way above their weight in audio quality, comfort, and durability. I run mine with a ~$20 digital DAC amp so I can also connect my mic but I have a friend who uses a audio cord with

Sick of replacing headsets every 2 years. Looking for a "Buy It For Life" Wireless Gaming Headset for FPS.

None, wired open back studio headphones would set you for life. Some notable ones and will be cheaper than the headsets you stated above are: Drop PC38x DT990 Pro (80 ohm) Philips Shp9500/9600 If you need a mic then maybe even that new ROG Kithara x HiFiman might be worthwhile.

Super quality wired headphones...

Philips shp-9500 are $40 - $60 and have a removable cable. They'll last forever and a replacement cable is $7 if you ever need it. Take it from someone that has had more than 5 pairs of headphones. You dont have to spend a lot to get a lot with headphones. Edit - Just for reference ive had Philips s
