Me too!

The culture has certainly changed from when I first graced these once-hallowed portals way back in April 2009.
I wuz a sprightly 61 years young back then........

Glad to still see some familiar names in this thread. It's been a while since I last checked Head-Fi and wow, everything looks and feels so different now. I still have fond memories of the early days and wonder if I'll ever really get back into headphones again. I'm happy with my small collection though and in fact, have a few that I should sell as they're just collecting dust.

 

[wink]

This is the best dust to collect....

Created my account in high school and purchased my first good pair of headphones from the recommendations here: Grado SR 80. Now I am an old fart who spends most of his listening time using earbuds that came with his phone. What have I become!?

i love that you still have an ipod in your rig!!

I still check in now and then and still love my Sennheisers.

Checking in to head-fi after a long hiatus. Was doing some research for closed headphones to keep at work. I'm actually listening to and annoying my coworkers with the Alessandro MS1's that I purchased from Jahn nearly a decade ago!

[wink]

But.... but we're all young at heart...... well, some of us are.....

Well, you're torturing your eardrums less with the default in-ears for a start

 

[wink]

You can't torture your eardrums with good music - you just go deaf happy......

Who you calling old?

Ha! It's good to see some of the OG crew lurking around here. It's amazing to see how far portable audio has come compared to when many of us first joined head-fi in 2001-2002. I still have my Grado SR60's and Sony 7506's that I purchased back in 2001 and they still work just fine, although I rarely listen to them, but I cannot sell them for sentimental reasons.

I settled on a pair of cheap iem's (Soniq Pulse) that sound amazing with comply tips so I use those for portable listening with my sansa clip (rockboxed of course).

Right there with you, Jon.
