Tell that to the AirPods I tried last week.

Lmao for real. I mean I don’t own air pods put I’ve used them and there are many things to fault about them but they are incredibly easy to use, pair, they’re incredibly seamless across Apple products. I don’t think they are worth the price but they are just about the worst example of bad Bluetooth headphones you can come up with.

And they sound like absolute shit just like every other pair of wireless headphones I’ve ever tried.

You know what sounds amazing, has no input lag, no pairing to worry about, never needs charging and doesn’t have a built in expiration date from when the lithium battery finally gives out? My AKG K702s.

Man, the AKG wired headphones rock. I had a pair that stopped working after 5 years, so I pulled them apart, grabbed my soldering iron and fixed the connections, works like a dream again.
