I totally can't empathize with people who, out of their own (not because of noise emission prevention) listen to music with headphones in their own home.

When I used to live in the parents house, I unwillingly "had to use" IEM. This didn't feel like listening to music for me, but more like analyzing/monitoring sound waves, way too analytical. In sound therapy, they don't use headphones either for a reason, don't they.

I prefer and use headphones for everything else, though.

both for different purposes

Both.

>Headphones
DT 880 / HD 650 Lyr2 amp and a modi DAC.

Nice for private listening, when it's late etc. I wear glasses though so keeping them on too long can make my ears sore from the plastic ear piece of my glasses.

>Speakers
Yamaha HS8 + Sub setup

That little woofer does some impressive room filling bass, not to mention the speakers themselves sound fantastic.

Speakers at night when my neighbors are asleep.

Headphones, not even the best speakers are gonna remove environment noise.
Well I suppose you're not gonna care if you live alone in a house, but in an apartment with kids it matters.
