Has anyone else noticed the fact that there’s a gaping hole in the wireless over-ear headphones market? It’s not something I’d paid particular attention to before, but the festive period has had me scouring the online market for a nameless family member who had expressed an interest in bagging a new pair for work and travel. This is my area, I thought; it's Harry's time to shine!
Being the sort of generous soul who likes to spend a bit of dollar on my nearest and dearest at this time of the year, the thought of gifting a pair of sub-£100 over-ears, even a really fine pair like the Sony WH-CH720N, seemed miserly, while regifting a years-old pair of discarded or overused review samples that were no longer needed also felt like a bit of a no-no. The recipient might never have found out, but, like something from an Edgar Allen Poe novella, I’d have known and the gnawing guilt would have rankled.
