On most things I don't notice enough of a difference to care at the levels I casually listen to things.

So a true audiophile will obviously prefer hardwired through a DAC with nice headphones. I find that a good pair of bluetooth headphones are just as good for most cases. (it's also why I don't get the need to have a headphone jack on a cellphone. With USB-C you can charge headphones in 5 minutes to last for a few hours, and audio quality is good enough for most casual listening aka: everything you'd be using the phone for)

at home, I go between the nest minis for convenience and my desktop speakers which are klipsch.

There's a world of a difference between $5-10 headphones and $60 headphones, A Decent amount of difference from 60 to 100, and after 100 it's all kinda just "i dont ever NEED this quality"
