SONY MDR-V150's


I use mine for both listening to music and making music/audio editing. And for ignoring people in public.

Gen 1 AirPods for gym/walking/hiking. I have three or four cheaper pairs of earbuds of various flavors around the house. Some have superior sound to the AirPods, but pairing can be a bear.

I bought a pair of Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 to replace an older Sony BT pair of cans I had. The sound quality is good, but this set of headphones does not hold a charge for more than a couple of hours and pairing is hell. Is it a call? Is it music? Is the sound muffled?

Sennheiser wired 280 pro. I am using these less often. They are used for gaming sometimes on my console, but are more of a music set.

Sennheiser 212 pro. I've replaced the ear pieces, numerous cords, etc. I've had these for twenty years. Bass is still among the best among closed ear cans I've had.

I have the wireless PS4/PS5 Sony branded headset. For $100, they are exceptional.

AirPods Max. These are easily the best overall headphones I've ever had, in terms of convenience, easy pairing to all Apple devices, etc.

Sennheiser HD450BT.

As I’m not an audiophile, I find them good if a bit lacking in volume when I really want to groove to something. They’re noise-cancelling which is nice. Battery outlasts me. And they taught me how to use Bluetooth.

I used my Anker Soundcore Q30s in-flight on my trip to Puerto Rico. The ANC seems to work pretty well. I watched movies on my tablet and listened to some smooth jazz on my phone. To use the onboard in-flight entertainment system on my return trip on Delta, I was able to use a Bluetooth transmitter.

Just put on my Stax cans for the first time in a while. It's amazing the sound one can get from headphones that are almost 50 years old! They're especially good for chamber music, which isn't too base heavy. Base is not their strong point.
