Fairbuds didn't accomodate my huge melon properly and the balance felt off - tested some van halen and the cymbals hurt more than usual. Both are really personal things so ya really should try them out yourself.
Repeat audio is new to me but looks very interesting. I love everything dutch.
Then theres the Valco VMK25-2 but those may still be assembled in china.
Or if you can handle wired theres a lot more quality per euro to be had. For example you could get second hand Austrian made AKG k812 for similar money.
Yea, the fitting is really an issue. I have sort of an alien head ๐ฝ๐
I feel that the 400โฌ for the earbuds are hefty, even for a green product. I tend to try the repeat.audio (try as in test if they match my head shape), and maybe go with the lifetime repair offer, well knowing that lifetime is only as long as the company exists.
My motivation is to support a company that made a lot of right decisions, e.g. in terms of right to repair/repairability and avoiding waste, e.g. by recycling. I cannot say that these reflect my values and given the opportunity buy something else ๐
Sounds good. I raise my size 63 hat to yer values.
