I need headphones that only an audiophile would love. I practically LIVE in my headphones and almost never take em off. I also dont wanna spend heaping tons of money on em tho ;w; maybe a budget of like- 100-200 I guess… I dunno what do yall recommend?

    Noise cancelling and audiophile can be tough. Noise blocking… maybe Etymotic ER2XR. Easy to drive, block noise, very audiophile. I have owned a lot of headphones but these days I mostly use Airpod Pro 2. The NC is great, they are small, and sound ok. I like that the NC is easy to toggle on and off. The Etymotic headphones sound great and block lots of noise but they are hard to constantly be putting in and taking out. The cable can get annoying too.

    I am waiting for Ety to make something more modern.

    • @thestereobus @Cock_Inspecting_Asexual AirPods Pro 2 really work for me personally

      If you wanted to stick with the AirPods route the Maxes will do a better job of noise isolation due to size, but they’re bulky and super expensive

      Though there are rumors going around that Apple will be updating the AirPods Max today at their release event so definitely keep a lookout for those if you’re interested
