Welk alledaags product is volgens jou de investering waard, zodat je het niet om de paar jaar hoeft te vervangen?

Ik gebruik inmiddels al vijf jaar mijn Sony WH-1000XM3 koptelefoon. Heb alleen een keer voor een tientje de oorkussens moeten vervangen vanwege slijtage. Echt een uitstekend product.

What’s something you spent money on that actually improved your life long-term?

A good solid pair of headphones. My Sony WH-1000XM3 (yes it's a mouthful) are entering their 8th year of service with me. Only maintenance I've done is changing earpads twice. 10/10 purchase

I might need to stop using CRT's, need advice

What about using headphones? I have slight tinnitus and my Sony WH1000XM3 with noise cancelling completely cuts out the CRT whine

What travel accessories are overrated?

I'd defend over the ear headphones, especially for >10hrs flights: Much better noise cancellation. The Sony XM3 which I bought 8 years ago still has better noise cancellation than latest airpods pro3 when used on an airplane. Comes with headphone jack to be connect to airplane infotainment system.

What is the best purchase you have ever made under 500 euro?

Dead right. I have my sony wh1000xm3 since August 2019, still going strong and 1000s of hours out of them. I'd never go back to earbuds.

Noise Canceling Kopfhörer zum Studieren

Ich nutze meine Sony WH-1000XM3 für genau diesen Zweck und sie tun mir gute Dienste. Die Nachfolgemodelle sind sicherlich noch besser. Vorteil gegenüber Ohrstöpseln sind für mich, dass ich die Kopfhörer schnell abnehmen kann und nichts in den Ohren habe. Und Over-Ear-Lärmschutz drückt meist recht fe

PX7 S3 atrocious ANC

ANC has never been a strength for this company. Even the reviews for this headphone would've been very clear that they don't have good ANC (although it's an improvement over the S2e....which themselves are not as good as even the Sony XM3 in the ANC department). I don't think Bowers should be shaded
