Do you prefer open or closed-back headphones?

Do you prefer open or closed-back headphones?

Closed, because I don't want people openly knowing the faggot ass music I listen to.

Closed back because if everybody can hear what I'm listening to, I might as well just buy speakers. I don't want to watch porn with speakers.

closee but i have hd600s
i like my iems better sometimes

in situations where open headphones are appropriate its better to have good speakers

not if u have to be quiet in any way

Closed headphones have no soundstage

I don't listen to music in headphones.

Enjoy your tinnitus, faggots.

Open back because the only time I use cans really is listening around the house while cooking and stuff so it doesn't matter if they're noisey.

This is a silly question. Open backs sound better in every way at the same price point. Closed backs offer isolation. There are clear reasons to use open or closed back depending on your situation. It's not a matter of preference, it's a matter of purpose.

semi open

jokes on you, I already have tinnitus since birth!

Jokes on you, I listen at a safe volume at all times.

...

t.is mad cause he has tinnitus

open is objectively better for home listening, closed for public

open so I can force my shitty music on others

Open, I also like to lay on the floor in front of the system. I should probably get floor pillows or something.

WHAT?
