I'm remotely thinking about getting new Over Ear Headphones. Does anyone have particular first hand experience with repeat.audio or with the fairphone earbuds xl?

repeat.audio offers a "comparison" at this page.

(Yes, I know brands like Teufel and their lovely Real Blue NC.... I also liked them very much, until the frame broke. Hence the two repairable products).

Have you looked into https://austrian.audio/product-category/headphones/ ?

Founded by ex-AKG people in Vienna, their higher end models are still made in Austria, and sound great. Easy to repair, too, from what I heard (didn't break mine.... yet)

No, actually I didn't knew about them.

Also I don't know if they really fit in my eco, green, recycling thought process so I just ordered the repeat.audio to give them a try.

I'm willing to share my impression as soon as possible and maybe we should make a list of Europan manufacturers of good over ear headphones.
