How old were you when you realized earbuds give better quality than over-the-ear headphones?

But they never stay in for me, even got some ones that clip over your ears but they don't fit right for shit.
Headphones do just fine, less hassle.

I have a pair of Quiet Comfort's also, and and my £40 Soundmagics match them for fidelity

5 years ago it seemed well known that IEMs beat overheads at any price point, but this seems to have been forgotten

If you're not buying $500+ in-ear studio monitors w/ custom molded fit, you're not living life properly.

Using a pair right now and they're pretty fucking great honestly, but my only experience with other IEMs are shitty drugstore earbuds so maybe take that with a grain of salt.
They take a bit getting used to though since you have to wear the cords around you're ear but you get used to it.
>>
>>72209437
Also had trouble getting the jack to fit into my phone with the case on. But you can also get replacement cords don't know how much they go for though.
With my laptop they fit fine.

Do earbuds damage ears?
>>
>>72210138
Does jerking off hurt you're dick? - depends how hard/loud you do it/play music
>>
>>72209837
No problem man
>>
>>72210263
But don't they do damage like cotton buds do by pushing back earwax?
>>
>>72210138
Depends on how loud you're listening to the music and how effective the seal is.
Generally, no, earbuds aren't very harmful.

Q-Tips are for cleaning around the ear canal, not the era canal itself.

I've had Sennheiser HD558's for a year now. My first pair of nice headphones. The bass is a little weak, a bit of sound leaks out because they're open, but I do love them. I think I would get better audio quality from IEMs.

I don't think I ever wanna go past earbuds. I was poor as a kid and poor as a young student. They kinda remind me of being a kid and that helps me deal with stuff, just remembering being a retarded 13 year old listening to Nirvana and Biggie.

VE Monks are still the best for their price, right? I'm thinking of getting a cheap pair of earbuds to keep in my bag incase so don't bring my good pair of IEMs.

i was 97. i was on my deathbed, and i asked my 5 year old great grandson to hand me over a phone to listen to the classic "humble" by kendrick lamar. knowing i had little time left to live, i made him a sign to fetch me my grandaughter's earbuds (she's a pleb) that were lying on the table instead of getting the headphones. as i shakily pressed play and the wonderful symphony hit my worn eardrums, i knew i had been listening to music wrong all my life. "little jimmy", i said, "you have to..." but my last breath came earlier than i expected, and i left my youngest offspring doomed to commit the same mistakes as i did.
