Monster Turbine Ear Hooks (for sale perhaps?)

Try the for sale/trade section.

BTW the Golds don't come with the ear hooks--or at least, mine didn't.  It's only the Coppers.  I've also heard that the hooks don't work well.

I just got my second set of Turbine's last month.  My first pair developed fell victim to my daughter's puppy who somehow got a hold of them.  Anyway, my new Turbines differed from my old ones in that the plug was 90 degrees and they included the ear hooks. 

The ear hooks are a good idea, but poor execution.  They don't work well at all for keeping the headphones planted in your ear.  They are flexible, but not in a way that I could really get them to mold to my ear where they did a whole lot.  Plus, you had to readjust them every time you took them off.  To top it off, the clips where the wire locks in at the bottom broke off on each of them about a day apart.  So, if the hooks where a consideration, I wouldn't bother.

On another note, I think my old Turbines were much better than my newer ones.  Same model, but the new ones seem really muddy and lack the punch of the old ones.  Not sure why that it, but they don't sound any better than other headphones I have that cost less than half as much. 

I'm about to get my MTPC in the mail, and I know I wont use it. Perhaps we can make a deal?
