I had a pair of Technics headphones that came with my Technics HiFi system but I wore them out, basically the padding disintegrated after so much use. 

 

I have tried Panasonic and Creative brands but currently I’m running the Sony NC 1000XM3s. I use them for listening to music and the Apple TV when others in the house have gone to bed.

Personal audio is a passion of mine. I own a few different sets of headphones/earbuds. I would be keen to update from my original Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless earbuds - as they are getting on in age but mainly because the battery life on these has never been very good. Although would be more than happy to get EAH-A800 as always looking to experience new headphones.

 

I have been a long time user of Technics as this was my first serious brand new set of audio equipment which i purchased back in the day.

 

I use my current headphones/earbuds to listen to music & for audio while watching videos etc on my phone. Currently enjoying trialling Tidal.

 

Thanks for this opportunity.

A pair of well worn Sennheiser HD569's.  Used for everything on my home/work pc.  Would be nice to have something wireless music and podcasts while moving around and going on walks.

I have and old pair of sony MDRZX770 over ear headphones but my teenage daughter "borrowed" them permantly and managed to break the joint at one of the cups so a replacement would be perfect.

I currently have Sony XM3's and I mainly use them for watching movies and listening to music/podcasts, I find the microphone on them isn't quite up to the task for my quiet voice for phone calls and video conferencing which I originally purchased them for.

I have a wired HyperX KHX-HSCP-RD headset and a forgot-the-name inexpensive earbuds with mic that I got on a whim when they were on sale one day.

 

I use the headphones when using my laptop for Zoom calls, watching videos, listening to music, and when using my phone indoors for talking, video calls, playing music, videos, or podcasts. When I am out of the house using my phone or if I want to be lying down while using my phone I use the earbuds.

Kia ora!  I don't have headphones as such, but use my Beats Flex wireless earphones to listen to podcasts when mowing the lawn, participate in online meetings from my phone, or watch streaming content from my laptop.

I would replace my Plantronics BT600, which are starting to get a bit manky. I currently use these mainly for Teams and also for youtube/spotify when at my PC, I also have some galaxy buds live that I use inside my earmuffs when mowing the lawn, however they keep falling out.

I would replace my pixel buds. They sound great when they work, but no noice canceling and constant bluetooth dropouts make them frustrating outside of the house. 

 

And who uses earbud inside the house?!
