That’s not how it is in Sweden. No ads for me.

The Samsung M100. I was such a player when I had that thing!

I had the hub before. The ice machine didn’t “fail”, but it got clogged a few times when we didn’t use it. But it was an easy fix.

Here’s my take…

First off, I’m an audiophile and a music producer and mixer. I also worked for around 10 years with home theater and music installations and tuning, so I know my audio for sure.

There are 5 types of music listening in my life.

1. In my studio, when I’m working on client mixes or my music. I have really expensive Genelecs and a treated room for that. Also, fantastic converters.

2. Background music for when I’m cooking, or hosting dinner parties etc. I use a Sonos system for that.

3. High-end and focused listening. This is where I sit in my chair, in front of my set of KEF stereo speakers and listen to an album from front to back on my record player.

4. Out and about music listening. This is with my phone and Bang & Olufsen bluetooth headphones. I don’t expect the best audio quality, and the stream I get from “lossless” with Apple Music is good enough for that. It’s not super focused listening, it’s almost like background listening, but on the go.

5. On the go high-end listening. This is for when I want to listen to music, in high quality. For example on an airplane or something like that. For this, I use a AudioQuest DragonFly Cobalt and my Bang & Olufsen headphones with a wire.

​

This way, I cover all my needs, with both Bluetooth headphones, and wired (with a USB-C DAC from AudioQuest.

So the bottom line, do I care if phones have a dedicated headphone jack? hell no.
