You can’t name a single headphone that has consistent reviews here. And not only that the reviews aren’t consistent, they are compeletly in contrast to each other and you can’t get any useful info on products because of that. I’ve been looking around for a headphone that i can upgrade to and after 2 weeks of watching reviews on YT and reading people’s opinions here, I am pretty much convinced that there is no point in reading nor watching the reviews here and YT.
I also do not understand the overly negative feelings people have towards different headphones. It almost feels like 75 percent of reviewers here are just fan-boys of a single brand and are trying to destroy other headphone brands.
And I’ve been into the hobby for about 4 years now and I know the terms people use and what they by them, so no I’m not confused by terminology or anything like that, I’m just frustrated by everyone here thinking they are absolutely right about everything (sometimes even about things they haven’t even tried)
You do make a good point. Just take each persons review with a grain of salt… I’ve been in this “Hobby” for over 2 decades. Way before this subreddit existed… and I bought headphones that people said where bass heavy and what not, from reviews on amazon and other sites, because this particular headphone I was looking at was not talked about in head-fi or here. And I did find some lemons where the reviewer stated clearly that said headphone had “good bass”/Pounding bass/strong bass/etc. later to find out that it wasn’t so to my hears… In other words this bass they bragged about in some headphones review was just like listening to the OEM speakers that come with TVs…
