Subject: Headphones - Wired or Wireless?

Written By: LyricBoy on 11/28/21 at 2:55 pm

I am noticing that most of the people where I work, who use headphones, still use the old fashioned wired jobbies.

I don’t use headphones at all.

What style is your pleasure? ???

I'm an audiophile, so it's gotta be wired. Anything else is lossy. :) Wireless might suit some people's needs, but I prefer hi-fi.

I do not wear headphones, I find the wearing off uncomfortable, and the plug-in your ears kind, the plugs never stay in.

I used to wear headphones with the wires attached to it but now I don't wear them any longer.

Wired. I don't like having to connect wireless ones to bluetooth every time.

Wired. You don't have to charge them and they sound better

Wired.  Not that wireless ones are bad, but if you're out and about and your headphones die, there's nothing you can do

I prefer wireless, less of chance of all the wires getting tangled while they're in your pocket, plus in my experience, these seem to last longer, my current set is about two years old with no problems, whenever I bought wired headphones, they seemingly always died as in like, the sound went out of one earbud or some other problem like that, maybe in 4-6 months.

I had a cheap $10 wired pair that only lasted about three months. The ground just disappeared. I was hearing only mono out of both cans, no stereo, and no center (i.e. no dialogue or lyrics). You definitely don't wanna go too cheap. My good headphones cost $60 and still work and sound great four years later.
