Do you guys think a headphone that cost £200+ over 10 years ago is still better than a cheap headphone brand new today?

I feel like the rate of quality increase isn’t anywhere near as fast as something like smartphones & the old headphones would still be better? Anyone have any input on this?

    True. IEMs and Portable DACs is where innovation is. Today $100 dongles measure better than $1000 dacs from 5 years ago.

    And today’s $1k tribrids are better than any flagship that came out say 6-7 years ago.
