What I means is do you use your phone speakers, laptop speakers, some other type of speakers, headphones, or earbuds?
I used to use headphones to listen to the audio from my youtube videos but I recently just broke the headphones, so thats why I’m got curious and want to ask. Feels odd to listen on phone speakers after using headphone for a while.
Headphones.
I’ve got a pair of nice old Japanese wooden bookshelfs hooked up to a NAD amp that plays both my records and my TV/PS. That does the heavy lifting, for my office I have some good but generic over ears that get the job done. And then I have a pair of planar earbuds ‘LetShoer S12’:which are awesome bit I don’t use often because they’re quite sharp for long sessions but sound fantastic.
- Jabra Elite earbuds for normal day to day
- SkullCandy Crusher Evo if I’m at the gym because the bass is rediculous and gets me hype
- Audeze Penrose if I’m gaming - best sound for the price imo
Jabra Elite 85t wireless earbuds when I’m out and about, noise cancelling Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones when I’m in the office/library/when my partner is WFH taking meetings, wired AKG K52 studio monitor headphones if I don’t want to disturb my partner when listening to vinyl or other high fidelity music- otherwise it goes through my Wharfedale Diamond 9.1 speakers. If I’m watching youtube or a film in bed on my laptop I’ll just use the laptop’s speakers
- Earbuds (Galaxy Buds, specifically) when I’m out and about.
- At home, I have a pair of wireless headphones (Bose) that lives next to my desktop rig.
- I also have some remarkably good Amazon Basics speakers (from 2014! The only thing that survives from my first machine!) that I use every now and then.
Earphones, all of the headphones I’ve worn are too uncomfortable to me, and I like the portability. Speakers are nice, but I don’t like being a nuisance in people’s ears.

On my phone I like headphones for music, but I prefer the speakers for stuff like videos. I don’t like my head/ears being constricted all the time, but sometimes when I want the best audio experience I’m okay with it. On good speakers like in my car or my soundbar I occasionally enjoy listening to music without headphones though. Though sometimes I like using headphones for videos too if I’m like cleaning and don’t wanna carry my phone around the house while listening to a video. Or if there’s a more nuanced audio factor that I wanna be able to hear better.
I need over ear headphones. Can’t stand earbuds and on ear headphones hurt my ears and make me feel like I can’t hear as well.
Galaxy buds at work. Bose QC35 at my home desk. And a Dewalt Bluetooth speaker while outside anywhere.
I’ve had the QC35 for more than 5 years now and I love them.
I love earbuds.
Edit: true wireless to be specific.
I mostly listen on headphones during my workday. I very much prefer to listen on speakers though.
hehe, here come the audiophiles
Studio monitors + sub at desk, usually earbuds everywhere else. Over-ear for traveling / occasionally DJing. Small sub in car.
AuADHD with hearing loss … only time I listen to music is cleaning house. Streaming TV is earbuds because I have it L O U D.
All of the above. Depends. Speakers for when I want to share with others, or no one else will be disturbed. Noise canceling headphones when I want to isolate myself from the surroundings. Ear buds when I want to be portable.
