I check the Gear FS forum most frequently, but usually post the most in the portable forum. That might change soon, because I'm probably going to get out of portables and try to get a good standalone source. I don't use my "portables" portably anyways. That said, most of the discussion that...

Awesome. I've got the third one (headphones on red background) up on my desktop. ^_^

Wow. Just got off the phone with a place in Columbus that does impressions for $10. Total.

I bought one pair each of the normal and vi's and will sell the other pair on the boards once I receive them. (just don't PM me asking for the spare pair at this point ) I'm head over heels for this deal but there's the 1% of me that has to ask the question that's surely coming -- why is this...

Man, I can't remember the last time I'd been to one of these.

Pretty sure he's just looking for earbuds or canal phones...not sure about clip-ons. Not a bad recommendation if he does want those, though. I'll back up the Senn MX400 recommendations (fyi, the 500s are just the 400s with a built-in volume control)...if you're lucky you may be able to find a...
