Dear Mr. Bunny (or may I call you Hop Daddy?),

I hope this letter finds you well and thumpin’. I know you’ve got a lot on your plate this time of year — what with the egg hiding, jelly bean logistics, and trying not to melt in early April heatwaves — but I come with one small, bunny-ear-shaped request.

This Easter… I don’t want chocolate.

I don’t want candy.

I don’t even want one of those weirdly muscular marshmallow Peeps.

I want the Apple AirPods Max.

The new ones. With USB-C.

I know, I know. I’ve been a bit of an eggs-tra critic in the past. I used to think the AirPods Max were too egg-stravagant. Too fluffy. Too… Lightning. I make music. I run podcasts. I need real inputs — the kind with cords. Aux or bust. Back then, Apple’s offering was more fluff than function for my workflow.

But the winds have shifted, Bunny.

🐣 The Firmware That Hatched a New Era

Apple just laid a seriously golden egg with firmware update 7E101. Now, the USB-C AirPods Max support lossless audio and ultra-low latency over a cable — a true gift for creators like me who live in the DAW (digital audio workstation, not department of agriculture and wildlife — although I appreciate your crossover work).

And not just any lossless. We’re talking 24-bit, 48kHz studio-grade audio, delivered with all the crispness of a fresh carrot snap.

Even better: I can now plug in with a USB-C-to-3.5mm cable (sold separately of course — Apple’s gonna Apple), and record or monitor audio the way the artist intended. That’s music to my floppy ears.

I didn’t expect Apple to hop to it and fix what used to be a dealbreaker for so many musicians and podcasters. But here we are. They’ve done it. I’m converted. Consider me a late bloomer — or a reformed bunny-skeptic.

🧺 Why I’m All In This Easter

So, Easter Bunny… here’s my egg-sistential dilemma:

I’ve got mics. I’ve got DAWs.

But my headphones? They’re cracking.

It’s time for an upgrade. One that works wirelessly when I’m hopping around, but also plugs in with zero latency when I’m editing vocals or recording an interview.

And now — finally now — the AirPods Max (USB-C) are egg-sactly what I need.

🥚 Trevor Score: 9.5/10 — Now That’s What I Call Egg-cellent

This isn’t a formal review — it’s just how I felt reading the firmware update and imagining myself jamming out in Spatial Audio like a bunny in a carrot patch. A gut-check from someone who used to roll their eyes at this product and is now very ready to hop on board.

Trevor Score: 9.5/10 — They fixed the cord issue, cracked open real studio potential, and gave me lossless joy. The only half-point off? That $39 cable still feels a little shellfish.

🐇 Final Verdict: I’m Ready to Join the Bunny Chorus

So if you’re reading this, dear Bunny, and you’ve got a pair of USB-C AirPods Max with firmware 7E101 nestled in that magical woven basket of yours — you know where to find me. I’ll be by the window, ears perked, editing audio and sipping coffee like the good tech egg I am.

I may not have believed in you before, but I do now.

Because sometimes, even Apple — and Easter — gets it just right.

Stay fluffy,

Trevor (your friendly neighborhood audio nerd)

P.S. If you can’t swing the headphones, I’ll also accept a basket full of mini Cadbury eggs and one of those hollow bunnies with the creepy candy eyes. But like… I won’t be happy about it.
