    yeah but I’ll take it over a wired set where one has to have the cord wrapped around my ear in a specific way for sound to come out.

    except no because a good enough replacement set was like 20 bucks and high end ones have always had and still do have removable cables.

      You don’t even need higher end ear buds for replaceable cables anymore. Moondrop CHU 2 are 20-25 € and come with a replaceable cable. The DSP version comes with a nice usb-c cable.

      Just make sure to get them from an official retailer; Chinese stuff like this often sells returns on Amazon, non-specialized retailers, etc. Hifi retailers like linsoul, Hifigo, Shenzhen audio, are the only ones where you’ll reliably get a working product. Otherwise the quality is quite good.
