Is it because Bluetooth gives you cancer?

>After years of being pushed aside by wireless earbuds and premium Bluetooth devices, wired earphones are making an unexpected comeback in 2026. Industry reports show that sales of wired audio devices have risen by nearly 20 per cent in the early months of the year, reversing a decline that had continued for almost five years.

It’s basically to be as anti-millennial as possible. It’s also a marketing tactic. Eventually millennials who are insecure enough will ride the coat tails to be called anything but unc or uncool.

Zoomers are literally, unironically, without a hint of irony, larping as if they're kids in the early 2000s.
I've seen zoomer girls dress up like they're barbie with glitter clothes, a bright pink t-shirt, kids sunglasses, a digital camera, wired headphones, etc.
Meanwhile the guys dress like they're bomfunk MC

>>534506562
I literally never stopped using them, I hate when this shit happens. Now everyone's gonna think I'm some faggot zoomer hipster. Same thing with long socks. I spend 15 years in the 2000s getting mocked for hiking my socks up, never stopped doing it because fuck you. Then all the zoomies made it cool and now im being mocked for copying zoomies. Same thing with fanny packs, I just realized, holy shit.

fuck off, all of you. Your fashion trends are pedophilic and gorillanigger-coded, I hate you all.

These would only be true if they didn't all exclusively use those cancer generic Apple headphones.

It's not like they're out there looking for the perfect pair of IEMs. If you actually show up with a /g/ approved pair of IEMs you look like some weirdo to them.

Tbh getting rid of the port was a bad design change. A lot of people started using Bluetooth headphones but I’ve been sticking with wired for a long time. When you have over the ear ones that are both Bluetooth and have an optional wire, those are dope. They have skullcandy ones with loud bass and clear sound, if the cord ever goes bad you can just replace it with another one or use bluetooth. But I hate charging BT batteries

I'm a millennial and I have KZ Pros hooked up to an Xduo X2s DAP

I also have an AGM m7 "feature phone"

I got the feature phone because smart phones are gay.

And the these 20$ wired earbuds sound significantly better than my 120$ Jlabs, its insane. I'm not even an audiophile and I can tell the difference.

Also fuck slopify, the DAP is about the size of an ipod shuffle, sounds good and does exactly what I want it to.

We get the mustache and mullet thing still in California as well. The only real change is the broccoli cut is now just some messy birds nest variant like a skater boy haircut. The rest have some middle-parted mullet called a wolf cut.

At the moment, the current up-to-date trend is basically something similar to Alysa Liu. A more cozy-core variant of Y2K. Some are still doing the grungy tomboy thing with therian/furry elements like clip-on tails. It’s basically a revival of the teen werewolf phase from 15 or more years ago and just as mall goth. Instead of Invader Zim, it’s Hazbin Hotel. For boys it’s some mix between a boy band, Shaggy from Scooby Doo, and Kurt Kobain. This trend has basically the rest of the year until it’s officially dead.

Eboy basically got a slight revival or like was given CPR to not fully die off. Scenecore music is the current alt music, and a fashion type is attached to it. By next year you’ll probably see some scene kid shit with some modern adjustments.

I like wired but it is a pain in the ass exercising or moving around. Wired if I am in front of the computer.

Mostly use Moondrop DAC for wired. Sony MDR-V6 for computer, Moondrop space travel at work, space travel 2 for running, Moondrop Ultrasonic for just listening, got the Moondrop GFL2 HK416 collab package, for wired on the go IEMs I tend to use CHU 2 or a pair of cheaper 7hz.

If kids and you guys were so concerned about EMF you wouldn't be using a phone that pings the cell towers every 2 secs to give your location data to google or whoever. On top of that, every house is buzzing with EMF from wireless printers, to 2.4 gHz wireless landlines, to 240 V coming into your dryer plus all other cell towers that dot the landscape.

Also these ones were like $30 and still last 24-30 hours before needing an hour to charge. When I first bought them they lasted like 72 hours and like any battery the life is decreasing but at that price even a neet like me can afford to replace them.

The interesting thing about mainstream fashion and subcultures that corporations push is that their target demographic has always been youth focused. OP’s article clearly demonstrates that. The youth are the denigrated who want things more than others, and it’s double if they’re female.

Take emo as an example for millennials. It was created by the GAP corporation and marketed to ages around 14. Eventually everyone around that core age, older and younger, tried to imitate and follow. The older guys did it to attract the girls. The younger folks did it because they looked up to older peers like looking up to an older sibling. Eventually, the trend goes mainstream to the point where adults follow the trend, skinny jeans being a prime example of that. Hipster wouldn’t have existed if GAP didn’t market emo to teenagers.

Think of a successful nightclub. It caters to women first. The men follow. The music industry works the same. If that were untrue, there would be new rock bands heavily advertised to literal boomers today. Pop music is always marketed toward the younger crowd first and foremost.

Big headphones like a DJ that are also a fashion accessory around your neck. Maybe fuzzy ear muffs that are also headphones. Eventually you’ll have kiosks at the mall selling headphone covers like phone cases. The biggest sluts around would be wearing fluffy pink muffs like a Bratz doll.

They were a status symbol in the past like how having an Apple laptop at Starbucks was one. Meanwhile, if you showed up with a Toshiba, you looked like an embarrassment.

The interesting thing about Apple marketing is that it’s entirely different compared to other companies. Look at the commercials. It just shows people dancing, smiling, some faggot tune, and is essentially no different than a Grub Hub advertisement. You will notice that they don’t even list the specs in the commercials. They are an inherently California company and the demographic is just that.

On the east coast, however, technology commercials are more professional showing a sleek black device and mentioning the power of the hardware. It’s presented like a Rolex or an Audi.

I used a Safe and Sound RF reader and did some tests. The Apple airpods emitt just as much as a running microwave 1" from the RF reader.
You're essentially getting the same radiation as putting 2 running microwaves in between your ears.

take one (1) FM stereo transmittter. Either buy the actual small electronics board or I just bought a "Mr. Microphone" on clearance for a dollar or two. The teeny electronics board inside was the same. There were labels under a magnifying glass on the board indicating MIC inputs, and they were stereo capable, all of them. (Mr. Microphone fed both L and R sides equally and in phase, so your voice came out of both speakers) These are what you wire the line level audio signal to. If you don't have true line level, you buy a cheap "line level signal adaptor" which any stereo store had. Fine a quiet spot on the FM radio dial. Any and I mean a-n-y FM radio is the transmitter. I wired one for headphone jack use, or I could put one inside any stereo or radio I wanted to.
>
t. I had true wireless headphones long before anyone could afford them. I was MAKING wireless headphones, microphones, guitar signal carriers... before people could afford them or many even knew they existed. But I was a STEMlord and electronics was a hobby. I used to make a small mint doing things for local musicians. Fixing amps and strat guitars, wireless conversions, doing line level electrical work for them, handling wiring and signal quality issues, installing home recording equipment and hardware, etc. I can make a small home recording studio for nothing if you can slowly scrounge stuff I tell you to. I used to be considered a GOD for all this.
>
But yeah. I could listen to my car stereo in my FM headphones at a party long before anyone else could afford it. Not to mention, I knew how to (illegal, but who cares) boost the FM signal for extra range and that still put me ahead of what people could finally afford commercially. When they can only go x feet away, and I can reliably go many times that distance, well, I still made bank.

>You were mocked for being a faggot. I was just thinking the other day I should pick up a fanny pack. Your post is a sign imma look for a Tac Ta Cool one
I remember all the young kids (musicians) making fun of the older guy (me) for wearing a fanny pack. After a long time of this, I always blew it off, I finally one day said it was because it was my "lucky fannypack". One young tough guy asked what was lucky about looking like a fag. Zip! My 357 was up against him point blank. I just smiled, and repeated myself politely. "They're just lucky." He just nodded his head and giggled along all polite. It left a lasting impression on all teh young kids I worked around. The polite older intellectual guy they always teased? Had been packing on them for a couple years and they never knew, nor even suspected. A couple of them got teased by their buddies for all the mad shit they had talked. Finally one day, the "we all own guns too" conversations started. I let *that* go for along time, then suddenly suggested we all go SHOOTING, and I drove them to my range. Not *one* of the young kids could hit the broiad side of a barn. I was picking off beer bottles at quite a distance with my carry piece. I can hit a 12" small pizza box at 50 yards, if I bench my elbow off my knee. Once again, I'm always one step ahead. Electronically, holding a weapon, then finally everyone knew I was the only one with a gun that could actually hit anything and I demonstrated my quick draw, too.
.
Its all so tiresome, to have to go through this to keep society polite, but what can you do.

My 560s are limited edition only available from one retailer, and go for 900 new in box. They were a gift, not a flex, and I hope for your sake you're using a headphone amp with yours. Without an amp and high-quality flac file or similar they give no higher sound quality than a 50$ pair off amazon, and if the driver is planar you're going to destroy them. It's like playing music over your car speaker via aux cable without maxing the source device volume, it will eventually destroy the speakers due to the constant motion.

Every generation has been poorer than the last since the west allowed jews to clip their coins legally. This will progress until everyone is homeless or something gets done about the root cause of the problem. You think owning Apple ObsolescencePods owns Gen Z while the society, cities, environment, everything has been plundered and is complete shit?

>I literally never stopped using them, I hate when this shit happens.
Damn, you're a retarded faggot! More people using them means MANUFACTURING them. Unless you want them to disappear then by all means gatekeep like a fucking queer.

Retards using their phones to stream music killed standalone Mp3 players. Sandisk was the best and they got out of the game, all that's left is cheap Chinese junk imports. Be fucking HAPPY when something consumable that you have to replace every so often gains market support.

Fucking imbecile.

Yeah, I didn’t realize they stopped making the Apple official brand. I still have one new in the box, because they were only like $7 so I would buy like 3 at a time in case one went bad or got twisted ect
I found some third party ones that work well too tho
Also over-the-head headphones are a good investment, like Sony or Skullcandy, can find them on sale sometimes, the ones worth $100+ you can buy for like 60$ sometimes. It’s a good investment because the sound quality for over the head headphones is so clear and louder, less outside noise interference too. Get one that has replaceable 3.5mm headphone cables so if one gets damaged or goes bad you can replace easily. They also have optional Bluetooth which I never really use
>>
>>534523445
Absolute fucking retard lmao. Even budget IEMs have detachable cable and any 15-20 bucks braided cable will last forever.
Only gorilla nigger normgoids use bluetooth audio or those shitty earbuds.

It’s because Bluetooth is used to track your location

It was a very generous gift, other anon was swinging his dick over his 500$ set, I didn't drop that money put of my own pocket. Point is, other people have nice things and don't feel the need to whip it out and helicopter their dick unprompted. 900$ isn't even a lot of money all said.
>>
>>534522549
Midrange IEMs already cost more than the most expensive wireless trash and the high end goes into thousands.
Good portable players cost the same as a decent smartphone while high end goes into thousands.
Even a fucking quality cable will cost more than the wireless trash most normies use.
Bluetooth audio is for the serfs.

Yes it is, only egotistical show offs say things like that. Anyone knows spending 900 on headphones is extortionate but most people that do will agree. Only people that care about others opinions or their status is disagree.

My man. Based "not buying the latest iphone for the cost of a used car for status" enjoyer. I'll sooner rig something up than overpay for the latest meme tech. I have an off-brand psu in two of my pc builds because it's cheaper to replace one every other year than pay 10x as much for a 1 year warrantee.

>>534506562
Well zoomers, prepare to be disappointed. I used to use wired and the cheap things kept fucking up and breaking all the damn time. Cheap ass copper wiring? Idk what the fuck was going on. After going thru about 15-20 of the fucking things I decided to give wireless a try and let me tell you those things fucking suck ass too. There is no relief. Just buy a gun and listen to your racist podcasts on speaker like a goddamn nigger/spic

It doesn't give you cancer but it does kill humans earlier. Extended exposure slightly increases lifespan in lab mice. Remember the Vioxx debacle in the mid 2000s? That statistically significant pushback in average lifespan before cancer sets in and causes death is an indicator of cellular damage because of the way lab mice and rat breeding protocols modify their DNA.
>>
>>534523445
Ask me how I know you don't listen to high-quality music. Wireless sounds like hardboiled asshole served on wheat bread, even a "high-end" set doesn't deliver the quality of a wired set at 10% the price, and then you have to charge the fucking thing constantly. "Muh walking around away from the device though" falls apart when you acknowledge that the range is negligibly further and a cell phone is typically the size of a slice of bread anyway.

I work for everything I have, I've been gifted 1400$ instruments, it's this thing called saving. If you don't have solid 401k matching at your job, I'd recommend you get on that. I gave away 900$ in pc components last fall because my nephew wanted a pc and had saved enough for a gpu, I didn't need the, cpu, mobo or psu, so I took his gpu and case I told him to buy and built him a setup. It cost me nothing, just spare parts.

>>534524339
Than you otherwise would die given that lab mice/rats have an unnatural capacity to heal from systemic cellular damage than their wild counterparts.

You can't really prove it, only infer it from the experiments because the companies that breed rodents for animal trials and experimentation will never admit that their changes to breeding protocol specificially to increase yield has been poisoning scientific studies for decades. Again, look into the vioxx scandal and you'll be able to figure out what's going on if you have half a brain.

Wired headphones don't run out of battery or fall to the floor.

They have their own set of problems, but this new generation doesn't know about it because so few of their phones have a headphone jack anymore. That'll change based on consumer interest, and the need to justify another $1000 phone on people when they can't even afford McDonald's.

I don't know about your country, but in the US a lot of people will travel up north or to cities on the East coast to buy a used car. Salted roads and ocean spray corrode the frame, and the market can't account for out of state vehicles that haven't been damaged by corrosion. You can also get a great deal if you can do basic mechanic work and find some asshole thinking he's pulling a fast one. I bought an suv like 10 years ago that just had a blown servo piston, owner thought it was a trashed transmission, got it for 800$ and it only needed a 10$ part and 20 minutes of work. My most recent purchase was a hatchback that needed a new pcv valve, alternator, O2 sensor and valve cover gaskets. The kid selling it likely thought the head gasket was failing based on the burnt oil smell and rough idle.

I'd like to also mention that suv I paid 800 for wound up with mold after the lines running water from the moon roof became disconnected while it sat for a while. Sold it as scrap for 950$ after 3 years of use. I basically profited off of renting the thing the way I see it, but still miss it.

there is no such thing as a "quality cable"
and there is absolutely no reason for a "portable player" to cost thousands. not even close. a $70 digital amp now outperforms any sub $1000 analog amp
>>
>>534524583
>or fall to the floor
What? And even if the cable is somehow shorter than 1 metre and the cable catches it, thats still pulling the cable out slowly. How the fuck is there people so retarded the think having a wire on your headphones mean they cant fall to the floor? Its infuriating to find out so many idiots exist
>>
>>534525125
>I dont care about ahy of that
Do you own your home, anon? I can't make you care, but most of us can't come up with 30k for a down payment without saving for a few years. Property tax on my place is 900 once a year, previous rent was 1200 a month. Mortgage payments were 500 and temporary at that. Stop thinking like a nigger.

>>534525160
im not even arguing that bluetooth is better. im saying shit is fucking retarded
but you mean the thing that happens when you leave your phone in another room, which is utterly impossible with a wire and is only due to an added convenience of bluetooth?

That's what all the pharma heads said from 99-2004 too at which point they started getting assraped by wrongful death suits. Lab breeding protocols make animal models for fatal side effects of pharmaceuticals worse than useless as many times positive results in rodents mean death in humans. What you believe is none of my business though.
