Meters Headphone RE VU
This is the final video I’ve scheduled for release in my absence.
Due to time constraints it’s another review, this time for a pair of Bluetooth headphones with VU meters in the ear cups.
With this one wrapped up I can now get on with packing my bags. So far I mostly seem to just be taking a bag of medication and an assortment of USB cables and chargers.
I hope you enjoy any festivities you get involved in - I’ll be back home a week before Christmas Day, although I think I’m going to skip the Christmas tree this year - it’d be up and down quicker than an umbrella.
Take care.
Mat

Because it's so practical...
Thanks for all the videos Matt. I’ve been off work with COVID and having a Techmoan binge. Thought about time I became a Patreon to provide some small contribution.
I was in your shoes 1 1/2 months ago - I'm convinced the bingeing boosted my recovery time by 20%.
Funny, I did the same thing! A VERY Techmoan product and review. I still love that every time...
I resisted watching til the 18th December! I knew they reminded me of something... https://ibb.co/0J4ZC5n Hope you had a good trip!
Enjoy your holiday!
Is it sold under the "Yards" brand name in the U.S.?
I have the Bose (I always said Bo-say, I am an idiot) Quiet Comfort II in silver and have had them for quite a few years now. I bought them mainly as I wanted a pair of headphones I could wear for hours without any discomfort. I have a lot of ear piercings, and they used to get crushed by over ear headphones. Happy to report, they are fantastic and worth every penny to me. I only wish I could find something similar that works with my stupid work laptop, as the headphones we were given are all torture devices.
Jabra, by any chance? Back when the plague started my employer gave us stereo Jabra headsets - but we had mono (one ear) headsets at the time. Since I only want customers to yell at me in one of my ears, I bought my own Jabra mono headset. It's so much better.
The price of these headphones should be 20, maximum 30 euro 😁
Finally! Protection against those sneaky individuals that wear headphones in company to see what people are saying about them, thinking they can't be heard. Now you KNOW when it's safe to slag 'em off
My wife wears very expensive sweaters which, coincidentally, have a label protruding from the back of the neckline that everyone else can see, but she can not...
I just love Matt's honest reviews, particularly all the (entertaining) niggles and flaws here that I'm sure most reviewers of review samples would discretely hide to keep the manufacturers happy to keep sending review samples.
It’s quite rare anyone sends me anything twice - which is why I should give a special mention to David at Cathode Corner and the chaps at Millclock, they have, because they also have justifiable confidence in the quality of their work.
Ha ha I can just see her indoors when she opens your suitcase " MATT" HOW MANY CAMCORDERS DO YOU NEED have a good time
I think i will always spell review as Re-VU from now on
I had to giggle a bit! I have a set of BTS Pro headphones (Plantronics), every time I put them on I feel I’m going into one of those hearing tests. They’re HUGE, but I like them because they have (what I’ve found to be) the longest range. I can keep listening to TV while visiting the fridge. Safe and happy travels, Mat! Thank you for all the entertainment, information, and, dare I say, laughs in 2022!
I always loved my Ashdown bass amp and it's little VU meter. I guess this is where they sold any spares!! Strange collaboration... Enjoy the hols!!
That is one of my favorite tech reviews you've done in a while because it highlights one of your qualities that made you my most anticipated video releases,,, your easy willingness to be self deprecating. It always feels comfortable and honest. Plus it was clear from jump this review was going to be on the humorous side. Thank you and have a great holiday!
Your QC-SE came through quickly!
I saw that Currys were matching the Bose price and also did next day delivery…for a bit extra. I wanted to make sure they arrived in time to take them on holiday.
"Don't spend too much on your headphones because they're all alright". That's why I love this channel. Reviews for the every-man, and not the audiophile.
Haven't watched the video yet, but just quickly want to say have a really great trip. Forget us; do not start checking your emails and especially don't read the YouTube comments! Cheers, S.
Will do - (or not do…if you know what I mean) - WiFi at sea is never the best …so I’ll be offline when I’m onboard.
Hope whatever it is you are doing is ok amd you have a good christmas
Hope you really enjoy your cruise Mat. Just now I have the image of you on the cruise ship wearing the VU headphones while playing shuffleboard or whatever it is one does on a cruise.
Those look ideal for anyone looking to bring attention to themselves whilst on public transport.
Always a good idea.
All work no play makes for unhappy techmoan. Breaks from the daily grind is important and you never know you might see a new bit of kit in a shop window or fellow tourist/local..
I’m hoping to find something odd - or at least get some inspiration.
I only saw these on eBay or Amazon yesterday and thought to myself "I wonder if Techmoan knows about these things?" Haha. There you go.
You've experienced what I experience every time I browse eBay.
hahaha I love how shamelessly useless these are! I appreciate the video p.s. you need to add more Patreon tiers, you should see how high some of the other creators in your field go.
I’d feel too guilty taking large amounts of money from people.
The spelling mistake on a £300 pair of headphones is gold
De Metre?
Overpriced Silly Headphones with VU-Meters and your hearing is okay the Sony and the Bose are one of the best ANC-Headphones on the Market. This Meters are Bad looking and Silly in so many ways.
This video has it all - it's an excellent finale before your excellent adventure. Puppet ✓ VU Meters ✓ Take It Off Peel-Off ✓ 🧡 Modeling ✓ looks fine Cuba Baion ✓ Your hard work of cranking these babies out in record timing is much appreciated. Rest assured that your TM engine will continue purring while you are away. Bon Voyage! https://ibb.co/6mdcpTY Edit: I have these headphones Sony MDR-ZX310AP/R ZX Series Stereo Headset - Red https://a.co/d/75P8HaJ - I want to love them, but I don't. Very uncomfortable and they rattle if I move my head. And I don't love ear sweat, either.
Sony’s model numbers are something else. I think you might prefer over-ear rather than on-ear.
Thanks for this and have a really really good trip !
haven't watched the video yet but from the picture these look extremely silly
The camera never lies.
I have quick question, not about the baked bean tins!! Is it correct that if, while watching one of your videos with ads, you let the ads play out does it mean more money for you Sir Moan ?
I’m not sure - but you’d need tens of thousands of people doing the same to have any real impact.
Enjoy your vacation. Don't forget the MicroMV cam :)
The MicroMV has recorded its last video. I might take one of the cameras from the MicroMV video with me though.
This video was everything I want from a Techmoan video - a highly detailed review of some silly weird bit of tech that I've never even thought of buying. Absolutely fun and wonderful!
Have a good holiday, don't rush back!
At least you have something to wear on your head if you wanted to dress as a retro tech Cyberman. I wonder if they wrote the 'justification' for the meters without laughing.
Cybermen came to mind immediately because of the silver finish.
You are looking like a Cyborg in those "bean cans". ;-)
Have a nice holiday.
Have nice holidays! And keep making videos about pointless things, it's just so much fun ;-)
It would be nice if you could get someone with a small, stupid, cucumber head like mine to see if they're as uncomfortable as with your big, stupid, melon head. Have a great vacay!!
Enjoy your trip my friend
Have a well-deserved break!
Hey Mat, take a look at this adapter. With 4 USB-A and 1 USB-C built in, it might reduce your load or chargers. I am not pushing this, but I have one, which is why I mention it. Otherwise, have a great trip.
I’m taking two of the latest gan chargers from Anker - with 8 USBs between them, but there’s still a load of wires to contend with.
So weird! Enjoy the well earned holiday and dont forget the camcorder
Enjoy your cruise 🛳
Enjoy you break.
Have a great trip, Mat and Mrs Moan.
I hope you have a nice relaxing time, Mat!
Have a great holiday!
