Love it! It's almost as if there was designed redundancy.

Have some very well loved ATH-AD700s with a properly ancient ModMic stuck to them. They are used for work calls, gaming and general media duties (basically everything).

Despite their age they're on their original earpads, which are still somehow in decent shape (if a bit dusty and with some flaking leatherette...).

The looks are also still amazing :)

The head phones I have are a cheap knock off I picked up whilst I was overseas in Malaysia over 10 years ago (as you can see they have had better days)…

 



 

I currently use them for listening to my google chrome book when watching movies, YouTube, listen to music.

 

Their painful to use at the best of times since they are wired, would love to get my hands on some wireless headset/ ear buds!!!

I’d love to be able to replace a set of Marley headphones that I use when working outside, they worked well but work outside is hard.

I'd use them for the bus ride to work where noise cancelling cups would block out all the surrounding noise so i could listen to music. Be awesome for the noisy office if/when life resumes after the pandemic and mynoffic reopens

Currently have a pair of sennheiser hd500, would love a pair to use at work for Zoom / Teams video meetings as the office is a noise place at times.

I use a ratty old pair of on-ear headphones plugged into the controller when I'm on the PS5 at night, so that I don't disturb anyone. These came free with a gaming laptop about 20 years ago.

 

It would be very nice to have something vastly better.

Need to source new cables for it though. Mainly listening to podcasts and music.

Well I'd be replacing my Sennheiser Momentum 2.0 on-ears wired headphones, which I seem to have now permanently lost to my daughter šŸ˜’

I'd now be after a wireless alternative anyway, so I used the wired Senns less and less.
I listen to music mostly with these, but if I had a nicer pair they'd ideally double for work calls as well.

Very cool competition, and thanks to Technics and Geekzone for teaming up for this giveaway šŸ‘

Don't have proper headphones, just the one's you get with mobile phone. Would love to have these which would make life lot easier. Will be using them to watch TV shows & movies without disturbing the family as I sometime watch late. It will also be very useful for meetings. All the best everyone.

Currently using Sennheiser 450BT for music, teams meetings (need to use webcam mic because the mic and headphones don't work well with the PC) and connected to my phone.

 

Is there such a thing as headphones that can connect with two devices without issues?

I'm currently using some 'Marley' branded bluetooth headphones.  I'm wanting something better though as I need headphones for voiceover work and on air.

 

Also I suffer from tinnitus 24/7 so would be keen to make more use of noise cancelling to help prevent flareups of the tinnitus getting worse (like my kids screaming!) šŸ™ƒ

I currently use Airpod Pro - mainly used for Zoom / video conferencing. Do use it for occasional YouTube watching in the middle of the night. I would love to have another standard Bluetooth handphone so I can use it seamlessly with my PC laptop!
