This sequence of comments has me cracking up.

“I need a thing to make suckers out of morons”

“You should sell them audiophile shit”

“Well.. some audiophile shit is ok.. up to point.. after that, you’re def a sucker!”

“Actually… you’re not a sucker at all if you spend a bunch of money on this shit. Here, take my money!”

I get what you're saying, but there are basically only 3 companies whose headphones are worth 300-600€. Said companies took decades, mountain of innovations and patents to get where they are now.

If you can actually get that kind of immersion and quality cheaper - I'm all ears. Literally

No judgement intended, and I agree! Trust me when I say that I have an unhealthy amount of money “invested” in headphones and amplifiers. I saw way too much of myself in both sides of that comments thread to not laugh.

Wanna start a headphone company with me?
