Finally we listen to the original beasts! 

After Show: The first iPod Headphones

Comments

I have the second generation ones but, they've been trashed as well, like you said they've been through the wash like three times and bits of the plastic are falling off, have used them if I cant find any others laying around my house.

Cromulent? Check. Chinsey? Check. Skookum when?

i got a ipod mini box and they came with a sealed set of those ear buds and the cloth bits was the exact same lol

All the memories of first gen, second gen, and ear pods rushing to my head lol. Good to remember those days

larsloveslegos

oh man, i remember those!!!! you really unlocked a memory in my head. i never had any of my own but you best believe i remember them

I really don't get how someone likes the sound of any earpods. The current ones are just bad compared to almost any cheap plugs/IEMs. Sub bass? In earpods? I dunno, gonna try them again, but I don't remember there being any bass at all and almost no highs.

If you ever do go through apple earbuds, they did make some fancier ones. https://in.pcmag.com/headphones-1/16594/apple-in-ear-headphones I found a pair in some parking lot in middle school and they were kinda ok.

Funny thing is when i was younger i actively tried to get my hand on a part of these. I thought they were good. Shows what i knew

Every time you go "man these stink" it makes me wish smell-o-vision was thing so I can get a whiff first hand 😂😂😂😂

Oh man, I remember when I used relay on $2 headphones, and I thought that having one of those iPod Headphones was the pinnacle of portable sound.

The old one sucked. I like the sound from the newer ones but my ears hurt after a while.

4th gen shuffles can be found NIB on ebay for about a hunge

They are the second gen headphones, the 1st gen had a yellow bottom not grey.

Did you ever find a pair of the second gen earbuds you were talking about in the end? Because I know I have a brand new pair still wrapped that came with my iPod Touch 4th gen

I remember the 2nd gen earbuds having the tendency to always start dying in 1 ear and not the other resulting in a terrible inbalance.

Dem HD280's 👌

Yea those ares are "okay", pretty flat sounding but wayy better than these ones!

IMO they were fine but super uncomfortable after an hour or two. Everything after was a nice improvement. I HATE the lightning connector though. Super unreliable if I'm out for walk. Can't even try running with them. Nowadays I prefer my Sony WH-1000XM3 when in public and Sennheiser HD280PRO at home.

The second-gen earbuds are still burned in my mind from my 4th gen iPod touch. I remember the sound not being too bad, but they were insanely uncomfortable (for my ears at least), and they fell out constantly. Eventually they suffered from the same internal wire break issue that seems to claim most earbuds. Much prefer modern EarPods.

I actually gave away some second gen headphones a few months ago :-( . Wish i didnt as I would have hapily sent them to you!

Me too mate, me too

Awh shucks Kacper!

first content creator i’ve ever donated to, your content is unique and has much variety even though it’s mostly about the same topic! love how you can make anything sound interesting

Thank god there is at least one content creator out there that has not brought up all of the world events. I am getting a political headache.

As a person who does not own any 'real' Apple products i do love the earpods. I can't stand the silicon tip thingies so i always have 3 pairs on hand in case Apple decides to retire the 3.5mm version

I remember using similar apple headphones but with foam thingy you put on them - and surprisingly that provided more bass! You had those things in package, but they seems to be destroyed over time))

"Users guide - out them in your head!". Thanks Wade, stay well matey...

Cheers Connor!

The tease for this one (and my bank opening back up) finally got me to hop aboard the patreon train, so glad the algorithm brought me your first video way back when. Keep making excellent videos man!

Connor Black

You need to try busting a pair of garbage headphones with the amp on that colorplay. See if you can make literal fire music lol

A great movie that evolved into an even better meme

I’m sure I’ve got app kinds of apples headphones all around the house. I should give them all a listen sometime! Another great video!

Justin McClellan

So whats the story with your fascination of Shrek?

Make sure you get authentic second gen earbuds if you buy from eBay, every time I’ve tried to buy them they end up being complete fakes. The giveaway is the plastic quality and the lack of branding on the cable.

Ey not a bad idea!

Yea YT stinks for a lot of stuff unfortunately. But folks need to blame papa Google a lot more, their logo loads first when I have to do business side of things.

Very kind but I might have already found some sorry!

FAR worse than I thought, bootleg territory.

Nah not too much, literally everything on this channel, even the expensive stuff is always the cheapest example I could find

try and find some of the "in ear headphones" Apple made, they were like earbuds they they sold for a higher price, I think that would make a cool video!

Glad I support you on patreon, its the only way I know when your videos come out. I'm subbed on YouTube with the bell set to all and I get nothing.

I may have a new pair! If you can pay shipping I’ll get em to ya

Figured they’d be utter crap

i have not know the first apple one i haveknew the 2nd but they have break and i have switch it for a sony kit a the time now i use a fostex t50 rp mk 3 with the shure pad and xduoo ta-01b cheap and real good sounding desktop setup they make your voice sound good and that is great (troll)

Dread to think how much you must have paid for those, haha!

I just bought a decent $15 pair from eBay. Although it's hard to find wired headphones nowadays.

Matthew Dunlop

i cant even find a pair of earbuds with a 3.5MM jack lol
