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 modded my 880s to have removable cables , replaced the pads and the headband as they were getting a bit worn after a decade of daily driving them. I use 1990s as my daily driver these days but I like having options.

Seriously solid headphones, I'm not immediately writing them off because a Chinese company though, I've used FiiO stuff for 15 years and it's been solid, so fingers crossed.
