That’s fair I suppose. I buy quality to last as well. I’ve only bought two pairs of headphones in the last 10 years. One pair is wired in ear studio monitors that came with a pouch to prevent damage and the other was some wired over the ear open backs for when I need to be quiet at my desk.

Get a tiny carrying pouch for your wired headphones and they will last a lot longer

Are they?? Am I the weird one for not constantly breaking headphones? I’m in my 30s and I can count on two hands the number of headphones I’ve had in my entire life and several of them I got for free with iPhones

It’s completely irrelevant to the article, but I can’t believe nobody mentioned how many fucking headphones this person goes through lol

particulars of every purchase I’ve ever made – from the noir novel I bought on the day that Amazon UK launched to the 28th pair of headphones acquired in as many years
