I don’t understand why people buy these nice and expensive headphones only to use Spotify, arguably the worst quality music streaming service that exists. It sounds so bad compared to Apple Music, YouTube Music, Tidal, Deezer, or even Napster. At least you are getting lossless sound with those, it won’t be the same as having a ripped flac from a CD but anything is better than the AAC 128/320kbps that Spotify offers. It just bothers me when I see photos of headphones on this sub and then they have Spotify open in the background, I just can’t understand!

    erence between mp3 320kbps and lossless, but everybody can hear good equipment vs bad equipment on either format. Just because people aren’t going endgame extracting everything the human senses can catch from sound waves doesn’t mean they’re dumb or wasting mone

    Anyone can tell the difference, you just have to train your ears for it my guy. It’s a big misconception that “not everyone can hear it”. If you don’t train your ears to hear the difference then you wont notice.

    That being said, do you love your current set up? Then fuck what I and everyone else thinks. As long as you enjoy your set up, then that’s all that matters.

      Most people are not trained listeners so they can’t tell the difference. Even with training the difference is tiny and you’d have to listen very carefully to spot any differences. So it’s not a misconception.
