Not a huge deal but the misuse of “end game”. End game is a phrase which originated on headfi when dinosaurs roamed the earth (before 2010 …) and it meant a setup so good you couldn’t possibly want more.
I see posters on here regularly who try two or three modestly priced headphones, keep one, and declare it their “end game”. That’s not endgame, it’s just a headphone you can afford and like enough to not sell it within a week of buying. Its like if I test-drove a 2024 Civic and Corolla, bought the Civic, and then posted on r/cars “well that’s it bois, I found my end-game car the Civic, I’m out of the car game forever, much peace and love to those of you still chasing the endgame.”
