redjambo Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Can you just not let people be to express themselves how they wish, i8hibsh? No-one is hurting anyone else (apart from you, it seems, for some unknown reason) by deciding to wear large headphones. Are you really that intolerant of other people?

frankblack Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 (edited) I just wonder why people want to walk around with big headphones to listen to music/radio etc? They aren't portable, won't fit into your pockets, and are a pain in the arse to carry - plus the fact you look a complete dick wearing them in public. I understand people wearing them while working at a computer or non-portable media device - that is the correct use for them.

luckyBatistuta Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 In ear for me, do think they look a bit stupid with these giant headphones on, but if I was a lot younger, I’d probably be walking around looking stupid with giant headphones on.

The Brow Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 For whatever reason the buds dont fit my lugs. Specifically my right ear, it always seems to slip out. Drives me off my tits, so I wear over the ear headphones. They're relatively normal size, theyre not the big 'cans', however, I have a pair of these for travel as they are amazing for noise cancelling and they are fantastic for sound quality. Haters gonna hate and I couldnt give a ****. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbf i got them for nothing from my brother who got a new pair and rather than splash out decided to wear them . I probably do look like an utter ***** but then fashion has never been my biggest concern. I couldn't give a flying feck what people think ?

The Beats ones are actually way overrated, don’t handle base very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tazio Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 There's a big difference between on ear and over ear headphones, I wear on ear ones due to my ears are incapable of holding onto buds for some reason and more importantly the speaker diaphragm is bigger so you get better sound at the bottom end of the spectrum. I'm not a millennial. Though some verses do walk around wearing full over the ear jobs and that is just not needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind you I am 61 so never wear them outside. Not because I would look like a prize fud, but because some nyaff may try and half inch them. Then they would have the Jonno DMs in the niagras to deal will. Buds are shite and hurt my Billy Joe's so don't wear them. Bose for me too jonno, great headphones.

Morgan Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Do the big headphones replace the shaving foam behind the ear and the piece of toast in the hand, whilst climbing onto the bus, that was a sign of being a ‘very important yuppie’ who had no time in the morning for anything, before dashing out the house to get to the office?

trotter Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Nothing wrong with a decent set of over-ears - especially if they are noise-cancelling. I spend far too much time on planes so got these, and they are a godsend. I'm biased of course, but I think they look pretty retro and cool.
