How do you enjoy listening to digital content? Speakers? Headphones? Earbuds?

Headphones.

I like to play it on speakerphone at full blast in public spaces

Dropped this? "/s"
- I know what i said

Always over ear headphones I don't get on with earbuds etc they hurt my ears and I think music is something that shouldn't be imposed on others so headphones it is

Since I'm lucky enough to still have a phone with a headphone jack, I mostly listen with my KZ ZSN in ear monitors. Really good sound for the price.

Second this. I bought some after watching Dankpods rate them as a cheap way to get into IEMs. I liked them so much that I bought the Bluetooth dongle attachments (AZ15) which were more expensive than the monitors themselves(!) to turn them into wireless earbuds and they're great. The IEMs themselves provide a lot of natural sound isolation and aren't overly bassy so you can enjoy all of the music while being able to hear the lyrics/lighter instruments.

The only thing I don't like is that they look fairly ridiculous to wear out and about. I have a conventional pair of Redmi Bud 3 for going places which are a lot more discreet, but don't sound half as good!

A Bluetooth speaker for the car, earbuds around town and headphones for gaming. Prefer speakers for movies.

Studio monitors (nothing too expensive, something I bought years ago), small USB-powered laptop speakers.

Bluetooth earbuds has been a bliss in home or when I’m out. You can leave your phone in one room and continue doing chores in another. When out, it’s no-brainer to use earbuds or headphones especially in public places. You don’t want to be the guy blasting music through speakers in public.

I always listen to music on my Sony wh1000xm4 headphones. Added a bit of an eq tweak to them so they're less "boring". Imo they're fantastic, though I haven't tried anything non Bluetooth in the higher end spectrum of 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

I like headphones but if the music isn't taking advantage of the left/right channels, it doesn't matter if I listen on my big ass stereo. My only issue with headphones is after a while, my ears start to ache (the outside part I mean) and/or get uncomfortably hot. Even with my large monitors that go completely around and don't actually touch my ears, I start to feel like they're being squeezed.

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.

I use AirPods

Headphones. I do have speakers but they're mostly for my record player, although I have them hooked up to my pc as well. Earphones, not so much. Not comfortable for me.

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.

hehe, here come the audiophiles

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.

Either speakers or headphones. I hate earbuds.

I'm kind of specific.

Unless I purposefully want to hear sound, my devices are muted 100% of the time. If I am listening to something, I wear earbuds with over-ear hooks, so that one of them can sit partially out of my ear, so that my hearing is not completely isolated from the world.

Though...autistic.

That's why I love my Sony Linkbuds. They are physically open, so I hear my surroundings just fine while listening to music/watching a video.

Permanently Deleted

Bluetooth speakers for music in the kitchen, attached sound system for steaming TV, over-ear noise cancelling bluetooth headphones for desk work, over-ear bluetooth ear protection headphones for shop/yard work, earbuds for shopping/etc (fuck store muzak).

@001100010010 I live in bone conducting headphones most of the day, but when I'm at home, it's either my crappy TV speakers or dedicated over the ear headphones

Basically phone speakers at home, earbuds while away. As basic as you can get.

All of it.

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.

The basic Bose AE headphones are still the most comfortable I've ever owned. They eventually fell apart and they were always a bit too quiet (needed an external amp ideally), but I was almost more comfortable with them on than with them off.
- I've bought replacement ear pads two or three times now. The top is beginning to fall apart a bit but overall they are holding strong.

I love earbuds.

Edit: true wireless to be specific.

Laptop speakers and headphones

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.

Sennheisers at the desk. Bone conducting headsets when mobile. The car gets really abused especially if I'm driving somewhere alone.

Ol’ mate Senns?

I have a pair of Focal Elegia connected to my Pc via a Sabaj a20d DAC. They sound great. Sometime in the future I wanna upgrade them to the Stellia.

Depends on what I'm doing and where I am.

Out of the house? AirPod Pros.

At home? My speaker setup (Focals, forgot what model).

At home but listening to music? My Stax electrostatic headphones. Nothing can beat them, at least nothing I'll ever be able to afford.

Speakers, ideally in surround.

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.

I hate in ear headphones so I mostly use Over ear headphones and mostly wired if no travel is involved.

Either DT990s or cheap Edifier "studio monitors" connected to my audio interface when at home, or M50XBT outside

I have a decent pair of Sennheiser over heat headphones. Nothing too fancy. Just some decent headphones. Totally good enough for me.

I don't like earbuds. I guess I have weirdly shaped ears? Because they just call right out.

Galaxy Buds Pro on my commute, Plantronics Voyager 8200 when I'm at my desk (or travelling on the plane).

For TV/games I've got a 5.1 sound system, but I will often just chill on my bed watching things from my laptop or playing on my Steam Deck with the built-in speakers.

Do you have an EQ preset you like for the Voyager? I feel like music sounds bad on my set.
- Not really, but are you using your computer's Bluetooth or the provided dongle, and do you have any apps keeping your mic open? If you use standard Bluetooth on Windows it sometimes gets stuck in duplex mode (the mode for conversations rather than consuming content), and music sounds awful.
  
  They're good enough for music, but they're more optimised for online meetings. You're not going to get a hi-fi experience from them.

Used to be earbuds, but I've become allergic to the rubber on the buds. So I can't use them as much anymore. I've switched to speakers for things I don't care about the audio quality, and those bulky headphones for stuff I do care about. I don't use speakers in public and I can hardly be bothered to carry those massive headphones when I go out though. Hate them. Earbuds sound so much better.

Have you tried these tips? https://www.complyfoam.com/
- No, I didn't even know such a thing existed. Thanks for the suggestion, I might try them!

When I want high quality and am not really on the go, I have Drop panda headphones and some Sony earbuds for when I am on the go.

I mostly listen on headphones during my workday. I very much prefer to listen on speakers though.

Studio monitors + sub at desk, usually earbuds everywhere else. Over-ear for traveling / occasionally DJing. Small sub in car.

Bluetooth earbuds on my phone. And wired earphones if I'm on my laptop.

I have a pair of Phillips Fidelio X2HR for my PC where I listen to most things; an unexpected brand compared to the likes of Sony or Sennheiser. I'm considering an upgrade to a close-backed pair of headphones since I don't live alone and my PC space is nearby to the kitchen, so I would like to block sound out.

In the gym out back I use a Google Mini. Living where I am now I haven't needed earbuds for public transport so I don't have any. I will eventually buy a pair for when I go camping and want to watch something on my phone.

Headphones on my desktop and earphones on my phone.

I used to have speakers on my desktop but they broke and I never really used them much anyway.

Too many headphones lol. Usually my Hifiman Sundara or Modhouse Argon Mk3. I got a Bluetooth amp (xduoo XD-05 plus) to drive them so I can at least stay semi-portable.

"Sports" Bluetooth buds so I can quickly take one or both out and not have to faff around with a case.

headphones all the time

I don't want everyone in the room to know what I'm listening to. But if I need to sing because THIS SONG HITS then I get it off the headphones and to speakers or just my phone audio output.

Youtube videos have terrible audio. Any of the streaming audio services (even Youtube Music) will sound better.

As far as how I listen, I use wi-fi to speakers or wi-fi to streamer/dac/amp/headphones depending.

I often swap between three:

a convenient pair (wireless - Galaxy Buds Pro)
a good sounding pair (IEM with a DAC - Moondrop Aria)
a sleeping pair (small and cheap - Moondrop Quarks)
