    Following the coronavirus crisis, sales had collapsed, making restructuring measures necessary.

    How is that even possible? I get that their products aren’t cheap and sales might suffer from macroeconomic factors, but I sure would have thought that lockdowns and work-from-home have fuelled their sales.

      There’s another factor which hurts them but also makes them great. You only ever need to buy 1 pair. The build quality is phenomenal, I’ve had mine for 10 years and they look brand new.

      If I had to buy another pair I would (well, not anymore I guess). But beyerdynamic headphones are in the ‘buy it for life’ category

        I’ve had my pair of DT-100 since 1993. Still going strong, although very much the headphones of Theseus by now.
