When I was working offshore and flying up to Aberdeen every few weeks The one thing I consistently forgot were my earbuds. No real biggie just pick up another pair in duty free but this is the result. So almost 6 years down the line I've decided to do something with the box of earbuds cluttering up my life.
The sad thing is I know this isn’t the end as there is an empty box for JBL wireless buds so they are going to keep turning up.
And I know I have a pair of Klipsch and a pair of B&O lurking in a draw somewhere. There are also sone noise cancelling Bose headphones that I use for gaming.
Abs a set of Sony Wireless monitor for chilling out to decent music in the house.
One interest set is a waterproof MP3 player.
That I took to Truck lagoon and Bikini Atoll it's only rated for about 10m but I got around that by leaving it in an Otter box clipped on to the 6m deco platform. Music made the 2 hour decos a bit more bearable. Very handy so I guess I'm keeping those.
But what do you do with over a dozen pairs of headphones I guess it's off to the charity shop with most of them. The only problem with that is I'm not very good at chucking stuff out and can never make my mind up on what to keep.
The Shure 425s are amazing but flawed need repairing so stay tuned for a bit of DIY now that as I have finally found a cost effective way to fix them.
If I'm going to be honest the headphones I use most at the moment are a Shokz bone induction head set. Reasonable sound and you can hear whats going on around you so much safer if your out walking than earbuds or full headphones.
As for the rest it's off to the charity shop unless anyone out there wants a pair I'll post them out if your quick.
Wow, you're a bit of a "headphone hoarder" 😅 I hate the little bit of wires, especially when they get all knotted together and you never know where one starts and another ends. Keep your favourites, I'm sure there will be people happy to receive the rest. 😊
Wow. The last picture of your earbud is so fine. I would like to get one from you. Keep to your favourite. Kudos.
The shocz are great headphones, I need to fix the shure se425s. You can take your pick of the others drop me an email [email protected] and we can sort something
Headsets that can make us hear what is going on while putting them on is nice, and this type wouldn't be a problem to use at all, because someone is still going to hear what is said by another person, especially while walking on the street, it going to keep us aware of the sound of vehicle, I like the Shokz bone induction headset.

There are lots of goodies out there and I can't help feasting my eyes on them. I love ear buds and headphones. Okay, I love everything. Thanks for sharing.
