On a recent post, there were a lot of comments, which said that they were missing the headphones on newer mobile devices.

How many actually use the headphone jack?

I ask, because I have one on my phone, since I really wanted one, but I rarely use it. Like Tops 1/Month.

    I use headphone jack everyday since I use a iem. I hate using wireless buds.

      I use IEMs aa well but upgraded to a DAP, so strangely enough it’s a non issue now. Hyby R5 Gen 2, it sounds great.

          My particular DAP has a class A amplifier and a balanced output, and it’s HiRes. It can drive reasonably big headphones, basically portable HiFi.
