Would you be willing to provide more info regarding the sect you're referencing, for instance the name? I have a fascination with "original" gnostic/apocryphal beliefs, but this one is extremely intriguing & I want to learn more.

BTW the adapter I use is Apple-branded but still has the same volume issue reported for generic variants - it must be a limitation of the USB-C spec. I will concede that wireless is nice for workouts, though... I use my wife's when I am in a rare music-while-exercising mood. She's gone through 4 pairs in the past 5 years, though, and the amount of E-waste is very problematic.
If they made nice wireless headphones where the battery lasted longer than 5 years, wasn't at risk in a hot car or backpack, and was also reasonably priced I'd concede they're better. Until then theyre not a better solution (unless during workouts) and contributes to e-waste. The adapter is apple-branded too... I guess something about the usb-c spec doesn't allow loud audio signals to pass through.
My parents aren't even old enough to be boomers. I'm just practical.
I don't use headphones often, but when I do its' via wired headphones. I had to buy a USB-C-to-3.5mm adapter, but the max volume is half of what my old phone with a 3.5mm jack could deliver.
Cheap wireless devices like headphones are way too finicky and prone to breakage, not to mention the battery lifespan is just a few years. I've had my nice wired headphones for 10 years.
If this was Reddit I'd give an award or whatever they push now. Amazing, thank you.
