post #8462 of 90843/8/13 at 10:21pmSaw a girl wearing a pair of DT770 Pros at my uni while waiting for a bus. Quite a surprise for me.
post #8463 of 90843/9/13 at 4:06amSaw a guy with Sony XB500's who said he was using it for his studio monitoring class the other day. Later I talked to a guy about his TMA-1's.
Other than that, the usual sheep affair with beats littered the campus. :/post #8464 of 90843/9/13 at 10:40am- GREQ

If he does his mixing well, at least we'll end up with a bass-light recording, which is something of a refreshing change, if not ideal.

I also saw a Sony XB500, although it was at a robotics competition I attended today. There were also these huge and rather ugly headphones that were likely just meant to block out noise while people worked on loud machinery. Other than that, I didn't really see any headphones at all, let alone Beats.

What you'll see at my school: beats beats beats beats more beats, some fresh beats, garden picked beats. Then there's the Apple orchard. Ear pod here, there, everywhere. Then there's the cheap in ear headphones with no cushioning that make my ears bleed from discomfort. Then there's me in the corner rocking out to my sennheiser over ear headphones, while people laugh at me for paying more than 100$ on such a crappy pair of headphones. Smd.post #8469 of 90843/9/13 at 9:13pm- Kamakahah

My university is exactly the same. Endless fields of Beats and Apples. I'll occasionally see something that grabs my attention but it's rare.post #8470 of 90843/9/13 at 9:20pm- Mach Supremacy

And good. If they run out of beats, maybe someone will buy something good. Saw some Senns and some Sonys when I went to pick up a new case for my phone, not all of their stuff is bad.

Saw a couple people wearing M50's in LA's J-town yesterday, one white and one LE. The LE looks surprisingly nice in person.

Still a really nice guy though.
