I have:

 

  • Microsoft Lifechat LX-3000: for Skype/Zoom/Teams video conference on desktop PC/laptop, occasionally for listening to music/youtube. Bought 2nd hand (garage sale) for $5. Regardless of the price and age I actually prefer its sound better than my Sennheiser 4.20S.
  • Sennheiser HD 4.20S: for watching Youtube on desktop PC (originally bought for headshet/mic for my smaprtphone but somehow the mic actually doesn't work so ended up with just for listening to music/youtube these days.)

I currently use my AirPods Pro for everything! Music, calls, MS Teams meetings, YouTube and occasionally the ANC just for some quiet time.

This is what I currently use when I am working out at the gym because I got told off for turning the music on 🤔

 

 

 

 

 

 

I also have a work jabber for taking phone calls on my work laptop, which is wired so can be quite annoying to use - by the time I untangle the line, quite often the call would have gone into voice mail...

I have a pair of $2 shop wired buds. Be nice not to have to replace them every couple of months :)

I'd wear them when Hubby is watching his scary movies so I can be in the lounge with him but not hear the scary parts!

I have some cheap bluetooth headphones that don't last. If I won these I would use them to listen to music at the end of the day.

I'd be replacing these Samsung old school headphones. I use them mainly for listening to the radio/MP3's on my phone while working/relaxing.

I use JBL Live 400BT headphones all day for my endless video conferences. 

 

They're OK, but I should have done Over-ears instead of on-ears. Wearing glasses they can get painful after a while.

I got a pair of BOSE branded earphones for 70% off at DSE when it went bankrupt. Sound is amazing but started to disintegrate at the 3rd year mark which was a real shame. I use it for movies and music on my computer.

I use my headphones a lot.  I love 'em for music of course, but... also use them for phone, Skype, Zoom, Teams etc.

 

I also use 'em for driving and flying (with or without music).  The ANR is just amazing.  Mind blowing amazing.  ANR's sure come a long way.

 

Music fidelity with the Sony XM4 is just also just mind blowingly superb.  I love 'em!

 

I also have some NURA True buds.  Nice, but not as good as a headset and nor as comfortable.

 

 

 

Not sure the Technics would be better, but I'd be happy to find out.

 

 

 

 

Cheers!

In to win.

Would be to replace some older Sony headphones that now don't cut the mustard.
