What kind of gimmick is that?

It's headphones you don't put on your ears. It vibrates the bone next to your ear instead. You still hear everything else through your ears so there is zero sound isolation.

> zero sound isolation
When would I want that?

when you're in the office

@happa bone conduction sounds like trash

does it?

yes

its fukin sending soundwaves through your skin

its always mega muffled

its main purpose was 1.warning/signal tones 2.radio (speak)

and even later one its not that good

iirc they dont even use those in army stuff else but signal generators in stinger missiles (lock-tone)

tbh juts use earbuds if you need to heat shit around you

and maybe 1 or 2 similar setups exist ?

<ie insert monk earphone meme here>

yes

not blasting everyone your music

I use bone conducting headphones at work. They sound like butt compared to anything else.

the technology isn't really there yet

i am the 🅱one

The more skin fat you have the mufflier the sound is

huooh

They have decent audio quality but they're sensitive to cable noise and they sound super muffled if you hear anything with your ears.

🅱one earphones are interesting.

but I prefer something boneless.

🤔 Playing FLACs seems to consume significantly more battery than mp3s on my M0.

It is completely normal,more energy is spend to give you that audiophile experience TM

more data transfer? maybe thats why

It should be also more cpu heavy,it is lossless BUT still compressed.

Departed country of origin,i m waiting for you tin t2 hue hue

It does make sense, still interesting.

@WXYZBAHA Tin Audio T2 is a good pair.

Though, you just missed a sale on them

They're still worth the $40-$50 USD. The new T2's just came out too
