    The only way to be more sustainable than with the Fairbuds XL is to stick with what you have and not buy anything new. The elaborate production comes at a price: you can get similarly good-sounding headphones for around 100 euros cheaper. For example, the Anker Soundcore Q45, which, however, epitomise the inglorious opposite in one respect, as not even their ear pads can be replaced...
