    Open backed headphones will vent your ears, and they have a richer soundscape

      I’ve got closed headphones because I wear them in public, but i wonder how good it is for ventilation. (Definitely is good for soundscape)

      Does it feel not hot at all, or just less so when wearing them for some time?

        I have some open-back headphones (wired) that I can wear for hours and forget they’re there. Not hot at all. The cushioned part is breathable too. They were a little snug at first, but great since then.

        Yeah depending on long long you need to wear a headset is a important factor!

        – Update –

        I swear I wrote how long, but I clearly typed long long… thats crazy.

          I see, definitely annoying in the summer.

          I’m sure we could make something to cool (or even heat) the headpads. I wonder if the jack could power it though 🤔

            If you can tolerate it bone conduction headphones are a option too! But they don’t have the same rich soundscape, but variety is good!

              Yeah, in-ear can become very pricey too if your looking for a good sound, there is definitely pros too though.

              I’m just a bit in between, I do love a better sound but I’m also poor as hell xD
