This is fantastic. I am proud of my invention: https://anycrap.shop/product/headphones-that-play-outwards

Though the AI-generated image didn't capture it that well :(

Hey, they already make those! Go get yourself some open-back headphones. They sound great and I love mine, though they are rather silly.

I haven't seen these, and you gave me a new fear for what people might do in public.

More seriously, they seem to have better audio so they're meant for home audiophile headphone usage?

Sony MDR 605LP is an example of a very open design. I used to own a pair, and I quite enjoys listening to them (by myself). Seems like today Open-Back Headphones is more popular, they are still open in the back.

The sound of the open air headphones are a bit hard to describe with other words than 'open' :-P It's just a bit more like listening to speakers.

> ... listening to speakers

This is exactly how we hear anything not live. A truly amazing time to be alive.

Yes, my open back headphones never leave my home. They really only make sense if you listen to a lot of music (I do).
