Buyer's Remorse: Headphones and earphones you bought on impulse and regretted. - Page 12

E3c, if 'dry stale bread' is a sound, that's it. I did like the isolation, though, it's just the uninvolving sound I didn't like for the money.

Panasonic RP-HC70. $50 (noise-cancelling by generating louder white noise than background!). First set of headphones before I discovered Head-Fi. 'Nuff said.

Sennheiser HD580s (at the same time I owned the HD600s). Not sure what I was thinking when I did that.

Sennheiser PX200. Sounded good to the guys next to me, but didn't for my ears; sold them to another head-fier.

Ok I'll bite.

I have no regrets with any. They are all worth the money spent and I'll sell none of them. So there!

Funny how "coming over here to Head-Fi" automatically degrades all our old equipment. One minute we're perfectly happy with our old cans, and the next, they suck. All because of exposure to the Head-Fi Buyrus.

Anyone interested in buying my ole Sony MDR XD400s?

While I'm sufficiently pleased with my A500s, I kinda regret not waiting and saving up for a pair of A900s!

I'm confused! Do you regret the RP-HC70?

I also think that my ESP9 buy was a bad idea in hindsight, although it did lead me to the Stax 2020.
lol you actually bought the zalmans? how bad were they

I regret buying Senn HD595s without enough money left over to buy an amp to go with them. They sound great, but they are for the computer, which isn't good enough to handle them at the moment.

Hello total bithead, goodbye wallet

i dont really regret my e4c's that much, they do sound very good

just not 'WOW! HOLY SHlT' good, if you know what i mean

what i do regret is not having a credit card, as the Shure E4c's are the best IEM's i could buy without a credit card

should have bought the E500's.... *SIGH*

I second. Sold mine within a week of purchasing them new.
