Do you use portable DAPs with headphones/IEMs in winter (below 0°C/32F)?

I strongly believe that below freezing temp is bad for electronics but around here, in winter, I still see people wearing Beats outside.

32F, sorry.

I've seen people wearing them and BOSE headphones in showering rain.

I wouldn't wear anything expensive outside. But I wouldn't really care about cheaper products such as my RE0's.
Just a few days ago, I went for a jog in them (and it was pouring). They got substantially wet, but these suckers are DURABLE!!!!!
 
I should make a compilation of all the mistreatment they've gone through

The electronics should be fine at those temperatures, as should the headphones. I'd be more worried about moisture (such as rain).

I'm pretty sure they have mobile phones in Siberia.
 
I think electronics suffers more in hot countries, from overheating and humidity, right?

I agree, heat seems to be a bigger problem than cold.
 
Although I wonder if cold can affect the sound of earphones/headphones.

Headphones keep your ears warm in the winter and sound good doing it!
