Where? Good chance that's a fellow head-fier.
Also, saw MDR-V6's on a girl (!) the other day. Sightings do happen...

I've been spotting the K81DJ (even on a cute girl) and the HD 25-1-II often on my subway rides to/from work, and even more of the QC2's and Beats pretty much everywhere. And people are still wearing those Grado's out and about on Queen W. or on the subway. Man, I really don't get how they can hear any of their music.
Edit: Saw a pair of what looked like A700's on the way to work today. Guy was sorta far away, but they were definitely a pair of ATH's. Now I don't feel so silly parading around with my Ultrasone's all the time. Yay for full size in public.

I saw an AKG K81DJ while having dinner. A green ATH-SQ5 and a guy blasting away his ATH-FC5 on the train.

ESW9s at the arcade in a posh mall. Looked pretty smug when Skullcandy boys were staring at his cans. Smug enough to keep them around his neck the whole time he was there.

Saw an middle aged lady walking her dog detouring through the uni campus with some Sennheiser EH series headphones! I was definitely pleasantly surprised that a woman of her age has half-decent taste in headphones.
Funny enough the ladies in the campus have far better headphone taste than the guys here. Seen a couple of AKG studio series headphones, a couple of ADDIEMs, a couple of ES7's, all from ladies here. The guys = :/, Skullcrappys, el-cheapos and ibuds.
The Asian international students of course are richer than the local 'whities' here thus they can afford ES7's (popular with Asian international female students). I've also seen a custom IEM as well.
Come on guys, step up!

I found out my friend has SE420s and there are about 3 EX90LPs, a PK2, and a flood of gumys at my school.

Some dude next to me with some HD201's and some other guy on the other side with black in-ears (cannot tell what it is from distance).
There's also quite a few Technics branded (i.e. Panasonic) headphones people have around here...

Lots of skullcandy skullcrushers in Stockholm. Saw one guy who went down the streets with HD 595 which seems odd since they are so open.

I catch the train to QUT in brissy a few times a week, today on the train from gold coast to brisbane, and walking round brisbane city, I saw over 9000 ibuds, heaps of earbuds that i couldn't name, few jvc earbuds, 2 pairs of sennheiser HD435, and a pair of sennheiser HD415, the highlight was probably the asian guy on the free loop that was wearing westone iem's (not customs) like black with red logo thingy.
i was using my MS-1i's at the time
....and one pair of skullcandies

I saw HD650 in a dance performance. One of the dancers had them on. He had some fast moves but the HP stayed on
