Another day for headphones
As I wrote previously, November 18th is Good Headphones Day and Good Earphones Day too. But there is another anniversary dedicated to headphones annually too, and that is February 22nd annually. It was created by the headphone information site Headphone Navi.
The date choice is simple but clever — headphones deliver music through two channels, left and right, so a day where the number 2 repeats felt like the perfect fit. It’s a small detail, but it captures the idea of enjoying music in stereo, wrapped in your own little sound world. There’s also a second meaning tucked into the date: the number 2 is linked to the phrase P2M (peer to music), expressing the hope that headphones can act as a bridge connecting people through music.
Headphone Navi itself is a site where users can quickly check reviews of popular models, compare prices, and keep up with new releases. So Headphone Day doubles as a chance to highlight the latest gear and celebrate the simple joy of slipping on a pair of headphones and diving into your favorite sounds.
