Been away from Head-Fi far too long. This is the kind of post that keeps me coming back over and over despite my lack of funds. Thanks OP.

the UM2 takes up most of my time with an occasional switch to SR80 when at home

A hairnet with iBuds tied to the sides, hooked up to a iPod shuffle that is artfully hidden under your hair. I am a student in debt at the University of Alberta.

Everything about the W3 is wonderful to my ears. I kind of cheated as I have only heard the Turbines out of the others but I really cannot imagine them beating or coming close to the perfection that is the W3 =P

i listen to a lot of electro and i think it sounds fine on my SR80s so i'd suggest that for your price range

the grados look great in my opinion....sweet retro style....and the sound can't really be beat for that price...i vote SR60s for sure

i hate the new facebook...and like the op, it has been forced upon me...i heard they redesigned it to be more accessible on those new mobile phones

some headphones, like the k701s, are extremely good-looking....what's the point of building a beautiful headphone if no one will see them? :P

depending on the can and how you pull it off, full-size cans can look awesome in public....personally, i find myself attracted to a guy who sports k701's in public

both are great, but the Beatles are greater

thanks ClieOS! i'm a fan of your guides...really helpful for beginners like me who want to make an informed choice....way to be

led zep for sure.....i lose track of time and space sometimes listening to them

finally part of team Grado .... SR-80s with PA2V2 out of an iPod

this sucks big time....now i'm scared since i live in Edmonton and am expecting two headphones later this week. i really hope this terrible situation will be resolved and you get your phones

yes, please sticky this....i'm a beginner and am considering IEMs and this was extremely helpful....short and sweet, but with enough detail to satisfy.... thanks!

k701's because they are the way they are.....and a goat because i love feta :P

I hear ya....why can't they just make them more sturdy? laminate the things or something....I am super careful with mine and the wear and tear kills me

Blindness by Jose Saramago the story is great but I find his writing style frustrating to read

yesterday, i bought my first pair of Grado's.....SR-80s on HF from malldian....i am super stoked for them to arrive

I saw Wall.E on Canada Day..... 10/10 it was outstanding! it is so cute and the humour is innocent, yet satisfyingly funny...fun for the whole family, i guarantee it!
