Something you might not expect from Staples is we got a really extensive headphone section. Like, we even got my personal favorites from JBL for because of the price and the quality. These ones, the tune, 5 twenties, y'all. JBL tunes are amazing, and so are these Sonos. Both JBL and Sony eats down, eats down, especially with price. If you really wanna get turnt up with that bass in trouble, get you some skull candies. You can really feel that best rattle the brain. And then, of course, you can never go wrong with a pair of Belkins either. These especially these ones, these ones are real comfortable, and they got them in that, like, mocha brown. It's tea. It's tea, and you gotta clock it.
