What are your favorite earbud headphones to shred to? I see a lot of people using over the head ones but I just use the old apple ones. What do y'all think

I throw the tube amp in my backpack.



What's the point of listening to Ravel's Boléro by LSO/Gergiev during my laps if I can't do it in the highest acoustic quality?

Nothing can beat Icons. You can reverse them and put them around your neck then bring the speakers up to your ears and they rest their perfectly due to some weird latex oakley shit on their goggles

Shure SE215 /thread

Super durable, incredibly accurate sound stage, low profile, inverted construction. Hands down the best earbuds $100 can buy

I used to ski with earbuds until I heard you could get crazy ear infections using them while skiing for lengthy periods. So now I have drop-in speakers in the earpads of my helmet. It sounds better, I can talk on the lift and don't have to worry about ear-ebola.

I don't know, a lot of people like the plunger ear buds like skull candys but I feel like when I put my hat and helmet over them they go so far in my ears and it's not a nice feeling that's why I like the OG apple ones
