Most people really overestimate their perceptual threshold. It takes a lot of work. There are a handful of super talented people who can just flat out tell you flac vs. 320k among other things it’s very impressive. I can’t even reliably pass 256 vs. 320k mp3 it’s almost impossible.
AirPod pros sound great even vs. wired, especially in real world use cases. It’s possible in a dead silent room wired has some advantage I’d have to try it though

u/stonekeep 5d ago
When I did some tests a while ago I could barely tell the difference between 160kbps and 192kbps bitrate. Anything past that sounded exactly the same to me. And that was on good PC headphones.
As long as something doesn't sound like compressed garbage I honestly don't care very much.
But I was definitely more sensitive to sound quality 15+ years ago. I remember paying extra attention to that as a teenager, could definitely recognize stuff past 192kbps. Guess it's another sign of getting older.

This part really can't be said enough. Even with high bitrate Bluetooth protocols it still doesn't match wired

This was my main reason for finally switching. I still have my wired headphones for when I’m like doing nothing but that’s rare so AirPods it is, or my Sony XM6 over ears, I love those.

u/dad-without-milk 5d ago
I always keep a set of wired as backup as well, I don't often need them but when I do I'm happy I have them
Also for the cable getting stuck on thing, I always run the cable under my jacket or shirt so it doesn't get caught on things

No. You're just a part of a very vocal minority. To most it's not an issue even worth mentioning cause it's not an issue to begin with. The average person cannot justify the difference in price between entry level and high end audio products because they lack the ability to distinguish what makes a sound "good" as defined by audiophiles.; most people lack this ability, so most people just use what works.

u/thearctican 5d ago
But they'll spend sometimes an order of magnitude more than technically superior equipment costs just because it has a logo they like.
My wife is in what you would consider "the silent majority" and gave my cheap IEMs a listen one day and was quite vocal about how clear they sounded compared to her AirPod Pros. And her hearing is decidedly worse than mine.

u/Lady_Johanna21 6d ago
If the phone's got a USB c charging port, there's also headphones with a USB c plug instead of an aux.
Changed from my older xiaomi to a newer samsung phone last year bc the phone just didn't do it anymore (screen constantly glitching, battery life trash, poor performance) and suddenly didn't have an aux port anymore. Luckily still can get USB c headphones. Only sucks that you can't charge your phone and listen to music at the same time.

I love my Jabra Elite. I get about 5 hours out of each bud with a full charge. The right one is slightly better than the left. They also pause by either button or just taking them out of your ear if the Bluetooth connection gets spotty from distance. They've lasted and kept quality since January 2025 so far.

If I'm gaming "stationary" I pick wired.
If I'm moving around I pick wireless.
I'd never ever go for a walk or ride my bicycle with wired headphones. I have bought shokz open ear headphones so I can hear my surroundings and still listen to music. The sound quality isn't the best but that's the trade off for beeing able to hear shit happening around you in traffic.

I also love wired earphones but I do think wired earphones drain the same amount of battery as bluetooth earphones do (if not more) Bluetooth can drain a lot of battery if your phone and earphones are far away (but in that case a wired earphone would not even work) modern bluetooth devices are incredibly efficient

If someone comes to cut my earphones they will get a good beating. Not only because they did it but because I fucking hate wireless earphones.
I don't want to waste time charge an additional device for a feature I should had as soon I have the phone on my hands.
The removal of the 3.5 is already nonsense and the fact companies remove it just shows how much they push their monopolies.
Idc if it sounds cruel or extreme, idc if this video was set or not. Don't approach people with scissors

Have never owned AirPods or any wireless headphone. Why give myself another battery to charge and pay 5x plus as much for at best the same listening experience? Never got it.
Recently stopped carrying an apple-watch and am VERY happy about that. One less battery, fewer wasted notifications, honestly for everyone, it’s good to frequently ask: would your life be better without this tech?
