Headphones .......... Huh?

I'm an old geezer. Have probably bought $250,000 worth of amps, pre-pros, speakers in the last 50 years. I mention that only to contrast it with the $150 I spent on bluetooth headphones, that sound better than anything I've ever heard. How is this possible?

Less than $100 for the wireless headphones. About $30 for the round bluetooth thingy I plug into the headphone jack on my tv. Call up Tidal on my Amazon Fire-thing and play one of my playlists.

I'm hearing details from this low end streaming mess, than I have ever heard over my systems. I have several hundred CDs, and those songs are most of the stuff on my playlists. So I've heard them many times. But, never like this!

Is this just a matter of me never using headphones previously? If so, I've been missing out.

The headphones aren't comfortable, so I can only listen a few hours, but it's totally worth it.

Thinking about placing some thick cloth over the cups to make it easier on the ears.

Who'd a thunk it!

Kind regards!
