Do Headphones Ever Retire?
Now, I've been looking around old posts for ideas on what headphones to buy.

Looking for IEMs Under $120
Hello Everyone, I just received a set of Bose MIE2i's, and while I don't mind the open-ear design, they have much too much bass for my liking (I listen to mostly rock music, and I hate when bass and drums get in the way of vocals and electric guitar). I am looking to return them and...- Slivortal
