Headphone Sightings 2 - Page 548

At the bus stop today, saw some guy wearing a pair of westone 4Rs. For some weird reason, he consistently kept staring at my customs and rig for 10 minutes. Creepy :D

B&W P3 (maybe, cant be sure of the model) @uni today. Some over-ear Sony,s and then white Porta Pros on the streets. Didn't see any Beats today.

Saw a girl wear Audio Technica ATH M-50 with a RED cable.

Upon further inspection, I noticed that it was the M50 detachable cable mod

with beats cable in them.

Uses Monster cables? Eh...The mod can be done by stores, too.

Could be a fake. IIRC monster/beats never sold the beats cable separately.

That doesnt necessarily mean that she couldnt have one, theres always the possibility that she has a pair of Beats as well, or even bought the cable from a third party store like a small electrical supply shop or something.

he was a head-fier and was finding a reason to approach you and start a conversation.

They used to. As replacement parts on the Monster Outlet Store. Back when Beats LLC was part of Monster. I ordered replacements from them once.

I always see Marshall Majors nowadays. They are proving to be popular among college students, replacing Beats in the process, slowly but surely. Is this good or bad news?

It's funny because I found a beats cable laying around which I am now using for my Monoprice 8323.

(If anything, Beats does the cable right. Tangle free and quite durable lol)

Clearly you've never known the horrors of Monster Turbine.

Saw a guy wearing Grados in front of the V&D department store here in Tilburg today. Couldn't tell which model it was as I was a bit too far away to see the details... They were Grados & they were black all over the earcup, so I guess they must have been sr60, sr80 or sr125... I hope it was he 60, as he took it through the rain...

Saw a pair of HD238s out and about in school a few days back, and since then its just been apple earbuds.... And I really do mean ALL apple earbuds, on the train, in school, the library, canteen, bus stop, WHY CAN'T THEY ALL DISAPPEAR?? :(

Exactly. Check my sig for proof. :(

Seeing how Monster was first and foremost a cable company, I would have certainly hoped that their cables would be high quality.
