My son (20 years old now) comes downstairs after cleaning his room and dumps a pair of Sennheiser HD6xx, Philips SHP9500, and Tin Audion T4s on my desk and says “Thanks for letting me use these.”

I don’t remember ever lending those to him. But at least I got them back.

Lately, I have been using AirPods Pro 2, and have been pretty happy with them. But the Tin T4 impressed me, now that I tried them out again. They’re REALLY comfortable and offer good sound isolation. I had them in for 2 hours and they didn’t bother me.

    Stories like these make me think that a headphones swap community would be a lot of fun and value. I have 6xx’s (they’re my favorite daily) but I have multiple other pairs that I don’t get around to selling, and I’d probably love to try out some other pairs for a bit.

    Tin T4 were one of my first purchases on this rabbit hole.

    They are pretty unique, comfortable, and perfect for string/vocal music. Glad u’re enjoying then again!
