I'm generally a Camp B listener. I never really got a chance to listen to very good speakers to really fully appreciate them as the budget won't allow, however, I have been able to get some very nice Sennheiser 555 headphones and love them so much. Also, the noise issue is a problem, as I'm living with family. It's great to be able to turn up the volume without having to disturb fellow members.

However, if I did have a choice of not having to worry about noise, and for a true Home Theatre experience, then for sure I'll go with good quality speakers and receivers. However for music listening, I'm a headphone fan.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

HD650s. My headphone of choice. Sennheiser for life.
FUCKING AMEN.



I've got me a pair of Senn triple 5s, and I LOVE them. I pretty much use them for everything from music to gaming to movies. It's so versatile <3.

Also, I've tried out the Shure E2Cs and (don't kill me here) I found them not as good nor robust as your typical $20 ones, HOWEVER, once I did the sound test of running a vacuum cleaner to simulate a constant noise level, the Shures pretty much blocked out all the sound and I could still listen to the opening of Beethoven's Piano Concerto # 1 without having to crank out the volume - however, with the stock cheapie portable headphones, all that noise was already washed out and drained away by the vacuum cleaner.

I might get some E4Cs for portable use if I ever do see them go much down in price from the $299 USD. Mucknuggle managed to snag them for $200 through the internets somewhere...

How ya doing, buddy?

Aye .

I've got two sets of golden headphones, at least I think they are. One is the awesome Sennheiser HD 595
Those arch padding for the 595 looks like sex for my head. So comfy, even more so than the felt padding for my 555s.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
