Products I’ve tried in the past

Raycon The Gaming earbuds: first set I owned, imo worst sound quality of the three, did not have noise cancellation as I did not desire it at the time
Sony WF-C500: best sound and noise cancellation of the three imo
Bose QuietComfort Ultra: disappointed overall with the quality. (compared to the Sony) Later learned they’re not well regarded also. I also felt they fell out of my ears the most when I was moving around as they might’ve been too large even with the smallest size pieces.

I’m not set on a price limit right now. Just looking around. But if you think you can find me something with good “bang for the buck” I’d absolutely appreciate that.

I’d like to use these for gaming and music

Other Games I enjoy playing:

iPhone 16 base
COD: Mobile

Xbox one S (currently. debating if I want to upgrade to Xbox series X/S or PC later on this year)
Forza Horizon 5, Minecraft, GTA games, Red Dead games.

Music:

Metallica largely. Occasionally some grunge, post grunge, Nu Metal, divorced dad rock basically.

Other needs:
I’m clumsy. Need something that can handle being dropped.

I also misplaced my last two and lost them. Would like to know of any solutions if possible to help prevent this again.

Thanks

Asking on my dad’s behalf

He has been loyal to Cooper AT3 XLTs for at least a decade and I’d imagine most of you know Cooper has discontinued them. The tread on his 2019 FX4 is starting to “cup”, and he would like to try something else anyway.

From what he’s thrown around was he’s heard good things about Falkens, and has also had a potential interest in Wranglers for his next set. He’s tried Pirellis in the past and did not like them.

**He prefers equivalent or quieter tire noise than the AT3 XLTs**.

I’ve driven my work’s shop truck F-250 with Dura tracs and I personally felt they made even more noise than the XLTs. I know there’s obviously different tread options for Wranglers I just felt safe to say should probably cross that off.

I know K02s are extremely popular across the internet, but he claims he’s heard somewhere they make more noise than the XLTs. I haven’t heard many complaints nor appraisal about noise across the web, idk if it’s just not a concern for most buyers, but haven’t really been searching around.

I think he said he’s okay with spending a little more money (compared to the XLTs MSRP at the time), but haven’t made a definitive budget limit yet. Just feeling and asking around right now to know what’s out there.
