If you're going to quote someone who posted a whole bunch of full-sized photos, you should at least put them in a spoiler. XD

Anywho, the T5p is labeled as an "audiophile" headphone? It sounds okay but nowhere even near "audiophile" in my opinion. The bass was fat and loose-sounding, the treble harsh, and the midrange a bit shouty, which is good for vocal monitoring like the Sony MDR-7506, which is 5 times cheaper.

.......holy schiit, never mind. The T5p is freaking $1000+????? That's 10 times the price of the MDR-7506.
Super sad face...

I guess the [in]famous Tesla drivers don't do it justice. :/

Saw a guy (probably a student) walking around Gainsville (near UF), Florida wearing PortaPros.

It's been a really stressful (and tiring) 60 hours, but throughout the my trip I've seen some good headphones. Sadly, I've been having some trouble with Wi-Fi so I couldn't type quickly since I have to make do with my phone. That, and I can't write bulleted lists...
Any unidentified headphones （unless brand is identified）, as well as Beats Studios, Solos and Solo HDs （except the latest models） will be excluded.

At the Pudong-Shanghai International Airport, I found:
● B&O BeoPlay on-ear （forgot model name）
● Beats Wireless
● Sony on-ear
● Bose wireless headset

On the plane bound for Hong Kong, I found:
● Marshall Major
● Parrot Zik

In the Hong Kong International Airport, I found a store called Empire（?) Audio with these headphones:
● Denon D7100
● Ultrasone Edition 12
● FAD (Final Audio Design) Piano Forte
● Sony MDR-1R
● iRiver DAPs

(All above are for sale and have pics which I'll post below. The rest don't have pictures and/or are spotted on heads.)

● Sennheiser HD 598, Momentum On & Over-Ear (for sale without pics)

● Sol Republic IEMs
● HD 202(?)
(On a head.)

I didn't find anything on the plane to Cebu (which is obviously where I am now), so I'm going to skip to the hee and now. I found a Sony store, which had a PS4 up on display, as well as the MacBook Air-fighting Vaio Pro 13. As for headphones, I found:
● MDR-1R and NC variant
● XB 600? (Forgot the name, but it's the X-Factor headphones without the X-Factor name on them)
● XB60EX and 90EX
● Some of their cheaper (and crappier) IEMs.

I was able to demo the 1R (not the NC) and the 90ex. Sadly I don't have pics since my Wi-Fi sucks. Bummer, but the Piano Forte was a hell of a find.
