Welcome to Headphone Heights, the place for all your ear bud discussion

RE: Incorrect on a number of counts.

You're such an optimist, or something.

"All this is now changing!"

Headphones are more popular now, mostly with young people. They're cheaper and sound good for the money. It has nothing to do with binaural.

I have never heard a binaural recording sound like anything but big monaural over loudspeakers. I haven't heard the Cheskys on speakers. That's one company. I have been listening to binaural since the 60s and making binaural recordings since the 70s. I think I know what most binaural recordings sound like over loudspeakers. They're crap.

"The time for binaural technology has finally arrived." It's been arriving since the 50s. Show me the arrival.

"The new crop of younger audiophiles are following (rather than fighting) mass market trends"

Really? They've ALWAYS followed mass market trends. That's why the mass market does so well and the audiophile market has that specialized sliver of market presence.

I really love your vision of the future and I want to live on that planet. Beam me up now.
