I don't get it either. Like whats the point? Having tried it I preferred e-waste tier membranes

I was perfectly fine with my 10USD office tier headsets before my friend introduced me to audiophile stuff. I can't go back anymore.

But i deliberately stopped trying better ones at 40-50 USD. I could easily see myself spending exponentially more if i try to find the difference.

Ps: I hate linear switches. I'd rather have a cheapo membrane than those. Like whats the point
