But why remove it? Having the option is more convenient then having an adapter, reduces e-waste and you never have to play the "Where the hell did I leave the dongle?" game ever again! 2.5mm sounds great in theory but the vast majority of stuff you'd listen to music on uses 3.5mm.

Solid unpopular opinion.

Hell yeah! It's a tough instrument, but it's the most expressive one (in my opinion). Trumpets always sound like the person who's playing them, almost like an extension of your personality. I think there's something wonderful about that.

I've got a trumpet (YTR-6320) from the 80s I bought used a bit back. It looks beat to hell but it just sings! It's as light as a feather aswell- I can play with one hand in my pocket.

Media-wise, I love some old 1930s swing and jazz tracks. It's super interesting to hear how similar some songs are to modern music.

Big bass guitar and a tiny little trumpet

I have the sennhieser hd560s that I adore. Read some reviews beforehand as you might need some sort of amplifier and not everyone likes them- but definitely one for consideration.

I'm not the most travelled person ever but I've always had good experiences at Edinburgh airport. Staffs been lovely and the security has good (relatively) smoothly.

Trumpet playing: The room you're playing in really affects the sound you hear. So does your position in that room. If you are having weird issues with pieces you know you can play, try playing in the corner of the rooms, so your playing into the largest physical space possible.
