The koss are a classic look and actually sound quite good, also they have a lifetime guarantee and they will literally just mail you new ones if they break, you just have to pay shipping. The audio technicas however are my bread and butter. Good price point and AMAZING sound. Been reliable for 2+ years for me

Cute, fun, and retro!
They’re on-ear, not over-ear, but they aren’t bulky at all and even fold down! I think they sound pretty great for the price point but the trade off you make is that they’re pretty leaky. I loved mine though—used them for years + went through a couple pair (but the warranty is great + worth accessing). Might be worth it to spring for models with replacement cords available cos for me, those were always what failed first.

affordable and sound great! plus, very easy and fun to mod to make them even better. currently I have the porta pro drivers on a looser headband and ksc 75 drivers on the porta pro headband both with yaxi pads. might do the mmcx mod next if I’m feeling crazy

The Bluetooth ones.
$200
Clear, high quality sound
Wireless listening + option to use included 3.5mm cord for top-qual listening
Now I have not used a lot of Bluetooth headphones..and certainly not extensively so I can’t say it’s like “absolutely the best quality for the price and for Bluetooth phones” .. but when I was doing my research before buying a pair everyone said so
Not bass heavy if that’s of any great priority to you* but imo they do plenty ‘nuff
Up to 50 hour battery life (10 minutes of charging gets you 3 hours listening time)
No noise cancelling (but you don’t need that imo…)
Decent microphone it does the job as far as calls or gaming or other casual mic needs
Classic AT design, timeless 2 me
There is also an app which allows you to do a lot of cool/useful things including:
❤️EQ adjustability❤️
*there is a bass-boosted mode
💕Low-latency mode💕
Loooove ^ so crucial for phone calls/gaming
👍switch btwn codec settings(I don’t use this because I am not a nerd (I actually just don‘t do anything that cool or serious with them))👍
Had mine for a year and a half. I love them would highly recommend also all reviews said AT headphones & specifically the ATH-M50x line hold up hella good. 10+ years type sh.

I don't care if it's a basic pick but this book is literally so powerful. Just filled to the brim with raw humanity in all the forms it can take. Cannot recommend enough. Read it as a teenager and it changed my life
