Do you use speakers or headphones for daily computing? Poll

Headphones all the time. My parents would go nuts from the noise and what the people say ingame.

Don't use expensive words to troll. Maybe they will believe you.

I like the freedom of speakers and the 'feelable' sound.

Oops, meant to say equilateral. Silly phone doesn't know that word.

The other word is used to classify cancer. Irony?

Then you don't have them setup correctly. If you form an esophageal triangle between the speakers and your head, it's better than any headphone.

I love headphones but 90% of my experience is with speakers.  You know the absolute rule about speakers?  "You never listen to a speaker.  You listen to a room with a speaker in it."  Headphones have the advantage of carrying that "room" around with them, so they will more or less sound the same for every wearer, and can be optimally designed around that concept.  Speakers, on the other hand...   ;)

You are correct though, if set up correctly, speakers can be an amazing experience.
