Just curious if any of you have trouble convincing your significant other that you need another pair of headphones? I mean, that person might not be happy about all the money you're pouring into this expensive habit. Perhaps she/he wants you to save money for something else? How do you guys get around this? Or do you just go ahead and buy the headphones anyway and let her/him deal with it?

I remind her how much more she's spending on school.

I use clothes as the weapon for argument

. Actually if I do that I will get thrown out

She goes:
"You already have so many, why do you want one more??"

And then I give some long explanation on the variations in SQ and how I want to use a different headphone in different scenarios....

And I change the topic...

At 20, that would be more true then I'd like to imagine.

All the more power to kids growing up in a music-loving family, though.

I remind her how much some friends are spending on things. Like one spending about $5333 on surroundsound for his tv. One spending alot of money into studion equipment. And also reminding her how much she spend on things and that she will be able to use the phones too

Precisely why I'm not sure I'll ever have any.

Hmmm, interesting. You guys think I should just pull the trigger on the HD650 and wait for her reaction once I get it? Assuming I don't get an empty box. -_-;

Never really thought about kids. Guess that day will come when I need to re-prioritize what is important in my life.
