cool_boy_mew (coolboymew@shitposter.club)'s status on Wednesday, 09-Aug-2023 00:06:21 JST cool_boy_mew @Leaflord I bought a a pair on Groupon years ago and it literally was on par with dollar store earbuds, I was so insulted I requested a refund -
Leaf Lord (leaflord@leafposter.club)'s status on Wednesday, 09-Aug-2023 00:07:48 JST Leaf Lord Surprisingly enough the best earbuds I ever bought were some chinky korean pair that I got in an airport in Mexico. cool_boy_mew likes this. -

cool_boy_mew (coolboymew@shitposter.club)'s status on Wednesday, 09-Aug-2023 00:09:07 JST cool_boy_mew @burner @Leaflord was it Xiaomi? They make decent stuff but break too fast -
burner (burner@norwoodzero.net)'s status on Wednesday, 09-Aug-2023 00:09:12 JST burner sounds more gooky than chinky
but that makes sense, half the battle with earphones is tuning, so cheapo earphones can sound really good -

cool_boy_mew (coolboymew@shitposter.club)'s status on Wednesday, 09-Aug-2023 00:16:25 JST cool_boy_mew @leyonhjelm @Leaflord Groupon is basically leftover warehouse stuff, some of it being scammy crappy shit
But they sounded so fucking bad, supposedly worth over 100$ but I wonder if they were fake replica, I thiiink I searched and they weren't? -
Leyonhjelm (leyonhjelm@breastmilk.club)'s status on Wednesday, 09-Aug-2023 00:16:26 JST Leyonhjelm I did not ever stop to suspect they were expensive enough to end up on groupon. I had some at uni. Not great quality but when I ruined them jumping out of an apple tree I was not upset. Being cheap was their schtick I thought.

Leaf Lord (leaflord@leafposter.club)'s status on Wednesday, 09-Aug-2023 00:16:39 JST Leaf Lord This is why I don't buy expensive earphones. I am a goddamn animal and break them quickly. So I just buy a bunch of cheap ones at once and go through them.
I do have an expensive headset in my office though.cool_boy_mew likes this. -
cool_boy_mew (coolboymew@shitposter.club)'s status on Wednesday, 09-Aug-2023 00:18:36 JST cool_boy_mew @Leaflord @leyonhjelm it's hard to be that careful about earbuds
However the Seinnheiser earbuds I had were impressive, lasted years and literally took a massive hit where my laptop bag fell and the goddamn earbuds cable held the bad, to the level where the cable got permanently curly from that and it still fucking worked perfectly, what -
cool_boy_mew (coolboymew@shitposter.club)'s status on Wednesday, 09-Aug-2023 00:19:50 JST cool_boy_mew @leyonhjelm @Leaflord I use Samsung wireless earbuds now, they hold inside your ears so you can even exercise
They might be uncomfortable in the long rum however compared to other earbuds -
Leyonhjelm (leyonhjelm@breastmilk.club)'s status on Wednesday, 09-Aug-2023 00:19:51 JST Leyonhjelm I still have three sets of skullcandy that I use for stuff like mowing or shoveling out the chicken coop. They fit my ears ok and keep the grass particles out of my ear canal. The noise of a weed eater or mower means sound quality is not a priority, and I reserve my worst pair for shit-shoveling because that task is filthy. The ones I use are discontinued I think but there are enough floating around if I ever find myself needing more for cheap. I don’t think I have ever paid more than $10 for a pair. To me, the main benefit of them being a “brand” is I can find another pair because these fit my ears.

Leyonhjelm (leyonhjelm@breastmilk.club)'s status on Wednesday, 09-Aug-2023 00:25:50 JST Leyonhjelm I had a pair that came with an old S3 or S4 galaxy phone. They fit my wife great but didn’t fit me well. So I gave them to her. I think it’s largely down to each person’s ears as far as fit. The ones that came with early iPhones were the worst I’ve ever used as far as staying in place.

I usually stay around the "cheap, but sounds good enough" line just before the true audiophile line -
