But overall, I agree. Having a nice ergonomic mouse and a good custom made mechanical keyboard is being way better than any gamerslop I used to have, for instance.

@Kyonko802 @Nanakoko @Suzu best two headphones you can get unless you want open backs. i personally like the m40x better just because i like the sound signature, but if you're going for accuracy then the m50x are about as good as you're going to get.
once it gets to open backs though you'll have a better sound stage, however there's zero isolation so you've gotta' have a quiet place to listen to them and you most definitely can't record with them. they're usually more expensive for the same level of quality. monitors are great for that sort of thing too.
@Kyonko802 @Nanakoko @Suzu i can tell the difference between a 320kbps file and high bitrate FLAC but the difference is extremely subtle and not really worth the extra storage space. it's really only useful if you're going to be chilling in your room alone listening to a whole uncompressed album.
bluetooth earbuds have gotten way better these days, they can still have latency issues but that's not a problem for just listening to music. anything in-ear isn't going to sound as good as on-ear but there are a lot of audio engineering tricks that are used to make it sound pretty good. most of the time i'm listening to music it's actually through shokz, which are those bone conductor thingies. audio quality is not good whatsoever and if i turn them up past halfway the left one starts to distort on high notes but they leave my ears open and are still certainly listenable. i fuckin hate having anything inside of my ears and headphones are a little too bulky to carry around so the shokz are perfect.
@Kyonko802 @Nanakoko @Suzu the only time i really cringe when people are using bluetooth buds or something is when it is beats or raycons. they are very overpriced and the lows are ball busting to the point of fucking with the rest of the music. going in between those and even airpods is night and day difference.
