For better or worse, I have put a not insignificant amount of effort into squeezing as much quality out of my listening experience as I can, within reason. While that means most of my music listening happens at my desk with lossless files through a dedicated DAC and headphone amp, I still appreciate the convenience of Bluetooth earbuds. Even the best earbuds around may not match that quality, but adding in things like active noise canceling makes it a much fairer trade, which is why Im always skeptical when a product promises all the benefits of both and none of the tradeoffs.
