Compared to a lot of headphones available in the 1970's they sound amazing.

    Not so sure about that claim. In the 70s everything was analogue. Bluetooth can barely do mp3 quality let alone CD which is still far from full analogue tape. Many headphone from back them line Sennheiser HD 414, Koss Pro/4AA, and Stax SR-X blow away anything some makes now

    Allow me to re-state, with emphasis:

    Compared to

    A LOT

    of headphones available in the 1970's, they sound amazing.

    Yeah, there's been good audio gear for decades, but there was also utter garboleum.

    My issue was back then things got better every year. People chased sound quality. Now people use Bluetooth and listen to music mixed on a laptop with autotune.

    Christians of Lemmy: You think your god would have bothered creating the universe if he knew it would inevitably lead to the existence of audiophiles?
