Crinacle has become so much less interesting to me over the last year or so.

Why do we have a whole second Modern Warfare trilogy?

Is she unhappy with just any amount of noise coming from them or are you seriously blasting your music? I can only hear noise bleed from my 600s if someone is listening to them like right next to me. If the latter I'd lower your volume before you damage your hearing.

Like all the other answers here, I'll say get a closed back headphone or IEMs. IEMs probably sound a bit clearer to me but closed backs are more comfortable (for me) and have better soundstage, if you care about that.

HD600, cliche as it is. Heard them for 5 seconds and was like "yup, this is it".

My personal favorite is the Panasonic Leica 10-25mm f/1.7 on M43 mount. I definitely don't use it the most since it's huge and I don't like taking it out for fun, but for any paid jobs I'm doing, this is the go-to.

The PL 12-60mm f/2.8-4 probably lives more on my camera since it's smaller and I feel better taking it in public.

I keep the door to this room closed when I'm gone and thankfully she's never gone for my headphones.

I'll let you know when I feel that, lol.

I guess the biggest affirmative moment for me this year was getting some of my photos printed in a magazine. That was a first and definitely helped me feel pretty legitimate in that moment.

I've made my living at least in part through videography and photography for almost 8 years now. I feel like I've primarily worked shitty/lower-end jobs in that time but I've gotten almost universal praise along the way from those places and any other miscellaneous freelance jobs I've had as well, so I guess that's something. I'm starting another job in marketing and video in a week and change so hopefully that feeling will change. I definitely feel like a professional, but I'd be lying if I said I've ever felt like I "made it".

Welcome to literally any tech hobby. Cameras, guitars, headphones, keyboards, video games, they're all the same. People will buy something and then dig their heels in the sand that whatever they buy is the best version of that thing and anyone not doing the same thing is dumb. You have to be able to filter out the dumb/obviously biased comments from ones that actually might be applicable to your question or point of interest.

This is almost as dumb as the people who pop in every once in a while to ask if it's okay to shower with headphones/IEMs, lmao.

Not really, no. It's more about usability for me.

I bought a Qudelix 5K to use out and about since I don't know how much longer I'll be able to have a phone with a headphone jack, and it's easier to do chores around the house with that clipped to my shirt instead of my phone in my pocket.

I have an iFi Zen Air DAC at my desk since the headphone jack on my computer is in kind of a goofy location and I also really like ASMR, so sometimes I want to jack my volume up for that. It can be nice to have that extra headroom for cases like that, or if your music is mastered really low for some reason, but I only spent $100 on that.

I fully think that people who proselytize the difference a DAC and/or amp make are just trying to justify the exorbitant money they put into their own stuff. This sub is also rife with people who are always chasing that high of buying new toys, so they never really enjoy what they have and just keep buying new stuff and using this sub to talk themselves into it.

Noah Igbinoghene was our worst player on the roster for 3 seasons after being a 2020 first round pick but everyone was hyperfixated on Tua.
