RHA T20i in-Ear Monitors (Gen. 2): HiFi Noise Isolating Stainless Steel in-Ear Headphones with Remote & Mic (Renewed)

I know the new hotness these days are AirPods and wireless headphones but even in 2022 there is still room for a good pair of high quality wired headphones! I own AirPods Pro headphones and they were fine until I got a MacBook for work. Apparently Mac OS and Logitech wireless Bluetooth mice and keyboards are not a good mix with Bluetooth headsets. The AirPods make robotic voices during Zoom calls due to Bluetooth conflicts. I have tried every solution and finally settled on using wired headphones again. While I thought this would certainly be a downgrade, I found the sound quality was MUCH superior!For years audiophiles have been complaining about the sound quality degradation of wireless Bluetooth but I thought it was the unfounded complaints of purists who refused to get with the times. However I realized this was true. These RHA headphones are certainly on the high end of the line but they blow away apple AirPods out of the water. Music was much deeper, voluminous, crisp, and bases were deeper and thumpier. I enjoy listening to music much better on these headphones than AirPods. The convenience of AirPods are certainly apparent when you don’t have to deal with wires and the size is great. However the RH headphones fit better and are sturdier.This model is officially discontinued because even RHA is jumping on the wireless bandwagon. This is a refurbished model but looks and acts brand new. It even comes with the original box and accessories. They don’t look like they’ve ever been used. Owning these puts me in a predicament of balancing quality versus convenience. AirPods are certainly convenient (unless when they don’t work) but these RHA headphones sound SOOOO MUCH better! I am keeping these headphones for when I really want to jam out and I am glad I got them!

with great sound quality

Box was little bit dusty but product is perfect!

So to start off these are currently discontinued and refurbished is the best you will get for these. However the set that was delivered to me looked extremely well like new. I will say one thing for these headphones. I hear sounds in songs i've never heard before and these are the best headphones i've ever had, might buy another set just to have when these break in a few years.10/10 Came with everything in the box just like it was brand new off the shelf.
