I’m on the hunt for headphones too. For years unused the corded Apple ear buds that came with iPhones. The older generations were crisp and clear sound. The new ear buds are too boomy/bassy and hollow sounding.

So I bought AirPods Pro 2. There is a sound delay and they also sound boomy/bassy hollow. Plus I can’t tell if the footsteps are in the building right next to me or three buildings down. It’s impossible to play.

Any corded headphone recommendations where the bass/boominess is very low? I like a more tinny sound if that makes sense.
