Today was a good day...I saw a guy with some over-the-ear IEMs on the bus in chinatown. They had a clear casing and a black braided cable which looked to be removable. A quick search revealed that he probably had the westone um1 or um2.
 
Later at borders I saw a girl wearing white ath-es7's! I "casually" went past her several times in order to check them out, since I had considered buying them before in the past. They looked nice in person, but were smaller than I expected.

Anything I currently own may be re-shelled and painted because I've been in that kind of mood lately.  I just bought MDR-V150 parts from a Head-Fi member I encountered on eBay.  I was trying to find a cheap pair of Plattan as proof of concept (I really like how they look), and that's when I stumbled upon the MDR-V150.  So if any of you spot some Sony Barneys out in San Francisco, you never know, there might be Beats-killers inside.
 
Granted, I wasn't planning on any vibrant or garish paint jobs, but you've got me thinking it's probably better for that sleeper factor.  "Omgz your headphones look a little like mines!!"  Heh, have a listen... *ALAC attack*

It doesn't snow in Austin very often (maybe once ever 1-2 years) and this morning it was everywhere. Went outside and saw some guy wearing HD580s as ear muffs. Oh wait... that was me

Hm. I directly associated "skullcandy/wesc" with the color. But then again I'm about to buy the most hideous cans on the market, the glorious DT-150. My HD25 usually already draws attention of the "Uuuh, oldtimers!"-kind.

That MDR-V150 looks like it has a split headband too, does it?
