These are only $60 and really great. They sound good, the button functionality is the best I've ever used, and they are almost sentient in how well they know how to connect to the thing I want.

I was stopped at airports a few times back in the day, heh. Now I'm trying usb-c DACs, and eh. I miss the warmth. Still have an RSA Tomahawk, thinking about selling it, or using it again.
I have UE Pro Reference Remastereds. Utter hnnngh. With custom art though, I can't post them sadly.

But in a nice suit well, it's more portable that's for sure. I was at the NYC CanJam recently and yeah, eh. Need to optimize my portable setup, for sure. Nice to meet another custom IEM user here, they're pretty rare outside the music industry.

I've used my Samsung buds+ for a few years now, completely love them and don't see a need to upgrade. The quality is pretty solid, I use them more for audio books and podcasts than music. At home I have my pc setup as a my little semi audiophile spot with a soundblaster ae9 and Beyer dynamic dt 1990 pros and klipshe bookshelf speakers

I found the xiaomi brand a long time ago. The air piston 2 's were awesome for 20 bucks. Sounded better than my 80 dollar Yamahas
When I had the corded ones, I always broke them. I remember buying bose and they broke, so next time I really tried to baby them. And those broke too. So I gave up on expensive ones for anything active
I always lose the Bluetooth non corded ones too. So I buy 20 dollar xiaomis which I think punch above their weight too
Doesn't feel so bad losing them
Also, check ebay every now and then. Cause they'll have really expensive for cheap a lot of times. Especially headphones

Most earbuds fall out of my ears. The ones I really liked for me (RHA) were wired and with use during training the wire always broke eventually.
I might buy RHA wireless.
How's JBL?
I've been out of it for ages, no clue.
