I personally love these.

As someone who has both… No this is better than the Apple DAC.

Good headphones will show you the flaws in the source. In this case you’re hearing how crappy your friends mic is. Welcome to audio. 🥰 Good headphones are good at everything. But you’ll certainly know it when the source is bad. Keep off the surround sound garbage. It’s just messing with tones and sounds terrible.

Koss kph40 and a nice foot stand.

I’m down. But, it sucks that if one part fails you lose two functions at once.

I’ve always been adamant that better sounding isn’t always better. I very often prefer technically inferior products because I just prefer their sound qualities better. Most music was never really intended to be played on some of the highest end products. It’s likely the artist didn’t even have access to the quality some of us here do.

I actually really love these I’m convinced the hate is just people repeating what they heard bad YouTube reviews.

My favorite headphones and I own like 60 pair.
