I agree, that's why I personally don't bother with products I don't really need. Other than direct animal exploitation, resource extraction can cause animal suffering/death. The folks who want wireless headphones should ask themselves if they really do need them. I was interested in the...

I read that gelatin is used to treat some of the stuff that goes into making Lithium-ion batteries. It would be ok if the gelatin was all sourced from naturally dead animals but the animal-exploiters are probably the major suppliers. Almost everything is tainted.

I like their appearance. How would you describe their sound and DAC-AMP requirements?

Your diligence is much appreciated. The threadstarter(smodtactical) has the Yamaha NS5000 so it would be kinda funny if these were not added alongside the caveats you've highlighted.

Cool. The ETA Mini Closed appear to be "universally" loved; the Mini S not as much. The O2 seems divisive.

Thanks for sharing about these and clarifying about the earpads. The name is a pun that's inspired by the Gandhi vs MLK ERB video. Naan is bread; breaking is typically a violent act but breaking bread means making peace or sharing a meaningful connection over a meal; play around with...

Love how these headphones don't stick out much and headfonia had some nice things to say about the hp10s and hp20. I used Google Translate to peruse SoundWarrior's official website and online storefronts. They say the headphone shells/bodies are nylon resin while the headbands are vinyl leather...

The Fairbuds XL headphones look interesting. I hope they're actually great and "audiophile" enough. Also, I think the T+A Solitaire T should be on the list. It's vegan-friendly and has been stated to have great output in both wired and wireless operation. Or is there something I've missed that...

@PeterV2560 Is this all with the stock vegan-friendly pads?

T+A Solitaire T appears to be vegan-friendly. I don't see it in the list. Edit: Never mind. These use lithium ion batteries which involve the use of gelatin at some point. Apologies for missing that.
