Headphones are for manchildren still living with their parents
>b-but speakers are too complicated! I have to worry about positioning and room response! I can afford good headphones but I can't afford good speakers!
Yes, that's why I said headphones are for manchildren

Meh, my custom IEMs are top-tier comfy and sound better than 99.9+% of speaker setups.

Also, women care fuck all about AV shit.
Are you trying to impress other men with your audiophile setup, you thinly closeted faggot?
>>
>>59799831
Headphones always have better sounds and I find them quite comfortable

>Also, women care fuck all about AV shit.
I think you mean girls. Women do care. Last woman I dated ran out and spent $1200 on audio gear after a few months listening to my system made her hate her speakers. $1200 may not be a lot but it's enough to shit all over what most of you headphone autists listen on (if anything)

Lots of people live in apartments or duplexes. When I want to blast music after a work shift or watch porn Im not going to embarass myself with the full 7.2 system in the den.

Home theater surround sound garbage is for people who don't give a shit about sound, just buy BOSE assuming you didn't already do that.

MUSIC is recorded and played back in stereo.
>>
>>59799831
agreed.
just bought pair of monitors for ~500 and already spent around 300 on room treatment but holy crap it's worth it
>>
I'd have to agree with the other anon. If you are going to spend equal dollars on headphones vs. hifi speakers and amp, you'll get better sound for your money with headphones up until the stupid and unreasonable price brackets.in which case speakers will excel only because you can keep adding redundant "reinforcement" speakers, or otherwise create more sound pressure.

Needing more sound pressure is the only good reason imho to spend extraordinary amount of money on speaker systems. If and only if you have a huge space to fill should the price of your speaker setup exceed $1000 usd

Pop quiz: which of the following has to move more air to move an eardrum:
1. Headphones
2. Speakers
I'll give you two guesses

>>59799831
>Headphones are for manchildren still living with their parents
actually, i'm the parent now and enjoy quality sound on my headphones during the night and not waking up anyone.

I would say spending a lot on your home theater speakers in general is sort of wasteful. The sound is mixed to sound like the rumble zone from the get-go. even cheap aio soundbar and woofers do a fine job with that shit.

I think spending tons to hear prerecorded music makes a bit more sense but still its kind of stupid. there is nothing you can do to change the track, you're only hearing it through different levels of distortion and pressure. big fucking deal, I hope your ears prefer the special consideration

If you are a musician or and you intend to record directly off your speakers, or otherwise play live through those speakers, then you should probably consider ponying up for professional shit.

just my .02. As long as your speakers don't sound like total shit, there's no reason to spend hard earned cash to slightly color your complex waveforms. if the song is good it will still be good, if its shitty it will keep on being shitty.

how 'bout you go fuck yourself instead
>>
>>59799831

I simply dislike other people hearing what I'm listening to, be it music, movies, videos or vidya, and can't enjoy them properly unless I'm the only one listening.
And since I don't live alone on a secluded estate, I ended up using my speakers very rarely and eventually I just sold them and never bought any replacement.
I bet you're the kind of person that even tweets about their dinner for validation.
>>
>>59799831
If you want to start speaker thread say so. Otherwise all you get is people shitposting.
Also some of use are not underage poorfags and can afford both speakers and headphones.
Kill yourself.

speakers for music
headphones for spoken word

i listen to training recordings with my headphones when i don't want any doubt about what i've heard
if i just want relaxing immersion in sound, i'll do the speakers

i don't watch tv or movies
>>
>>59800514
I only am able to listen to speakers in my car. then i dont care if someone listens to my girly music or my nigger rap beats.

Mainly because I don't like other people to get annoyed in my dorm due to my music.
I'm not an asshole that doesn't respect another person's silence if they are doing studying near me.

Also the original dark side of the moon has some of the most exaggerated stereo imaging of any well known rock & roll album, if you need more than 2 speakers, your speakers are really trash, like Logitech-tier trash
