i saw a pair of open ear headphones today. i thought they where sennheiser but they arent. anyways he let me listen to them and i thought they sounded better then my shure srh750dj headphones. but then again he had it on very low. i was shocked to even see audiophile quality headphones. those were the first serious pair of phones i found. but can someone help me find out what they were. they were black but the grill on them was a gold color. they had one of those headbands that are made of 2  tubes extending from the the drivers. and it fit on your head but instead of having a solid head rest it was 2 peices that rested on the sides of your head. do you have any idea what they were. i want to look them up.

to those wondering they kinda looked like these.
 

 
but they were all black and the grills were gold. also there was no label on the grills. anyone know what they were. the guy who showed them to me didnt know.

ath-a700?

The description sort of sounds like the A-T wing system, so maybe it's a rebranded or modded AT? Did you get a chance to ask him about them? Oops didn't read carefully

they were open ear. and they had metal grills and yes they had the wing system. so then i assume its audio technica. he said it was from an unknown japanese brand.

but i still would like to know what the model number is. i could see through the grills and saw the back of the drivers. does that sound familiar to any of you.

YES! It's right on the tip of my tongue too...

Where I go everyone either has Skullcandys or Beats. Although one of my friends does have some Sennheiser earbuds but mostly low end ones

 

[EternalEmpire]

Unlikely but maybe they were AD2000?
 

Or perhaps Superlux HD 668B?

AD900?
search for it on google..
or the AD1kPRM?

70% iPod earbuds, and the rest are generic $2 earbuds, a recent proliferation of 'Audiology' generic headphones, maybe 4-5 Sony MDR-V150s, and, of course, lots and lots of Skullcandies. Caught 3-4 Beats. I know this kid who is rich and swears by Bose (He has Triports, QC3s, QC15s, and lots of other Bose junk. Too much money, I'd say)
 
Only good cans I've seen were a pair of Sennheiser 202s, one Porta-Pro, and a couple of Shure IEMs. I thought I saw an M50, but I passed him a second time that day and I realized they were some generic ones. 
 
Methinks that when I walk in with my K518LEs at school, sadly these $60 cans will be the highest-end headphones there...

The guy at the front desk of my dorm had HD 212s Some guy with XB500s also passed by me yesterday. I thought that was pretty cool since all I see are Beats and Apple

The AD2000 sounds like it fits the description pretty well, except for the gold grilles...

it only had a coed coming out of one side and i am pretty sure they were oval shaped ear cups.

Just saw a pair of Ultrasone Edition 8's (well it was yesterday). I didn't think I would see these out in public especially in Christchurch, NZ. I was the only one that I knew of that had these headphones

Wow.

 

[Ishcabible]

Saw a pair of HD448's today. I was going to talk to him, but the kid looked slightly insane.
