Ok, I have an odd quasi mutual aid request:

Are there folks who would like to send me their old corded (not bluetooth) headphones and/or earbuds? Like just mail me kit you don't use.

I don't have any backups any more and my fav headphones need repairs, so want to stock up on other options.

I am in Ontario Canada, fyi for shipping feasibility.

Tagging #actuallyAutistic because ya'll know how important headphones are. 💛

[edit: got help on the headphone parts hunt, thanks!]

On a related note, any AV nerds that can point me to where I can order replacement parts for these Bowers and Wilkins headphones?

It's got a nice click in and out cord, and squishy pads that pop off. Should all be fixable, but it's not my wheelhouse and my cog is trashed so searching this stuff out shreds my brain.
I'm in Canada, fyi re shipping etc.
Links and leads appreciated.

@vlrny These look refreshingly simple, and the replaceable cord looks nice too. I can try to have a look at them if you like o:

@elfi thanks! I think once I source the parts it should be click, click simple. Sorry yours are no so cooperative re repair. Society is dumb, essentially generating garbage with a time lag. 😣
