That's what I'm saying, if you bump your thread up by posting in it, it will be at the top with all of the new posts. Just don't do it too much...

While cleaning out my friend's basement I found an old pair of AKG k240 Sextett LPs, I wasn't too surprised though since his garage is filled with VInyls and two turntables. His dad let me keep them as a thanks for helping 'em clean. :3

Not in high school anymore, but I rock my Pro 750s sometimes in a portable scene and get some questions. I feel I can get away with it because the 750s are ridiculously sexy, definitely head turners.
 
And oh man. I have so much fun showing off some head-fi sound to people wearing iPod buds. The face they make is just priceless. I've had a few cases where I had the exact song they were listening to on my player and just went 'Here, I have that song on my iPod. Have a listen.'
 
BACK ON TOPIC: Sighting wise, I haven't noticed anything too mind blowing, but I did spot some Senn 280s at a show I went to for SXSW.
 
EDIT: The more awesome part of this sighting were the custom pads he was rockin'. I was impressed.

The only respectable headphones I've seen at my high school was one pair of KSC-75's. I normally sport my HD280's to school, and I brought my 701's and PINT amp to school once and people were really impressed my the sound.

A girl tried to argue with me that the size my HD280's was unneccessary but then I told her that she'd never heard them. pwn. There's such a public distate for anything other than iBuds or Sony phones.

I was watching TV with my mom, and a Chase Sapphire commercial came on that I had seen so many times. But suddenly, I noticed that one of the people in the commercial was wearing Sony XB 700s. I exclaimed and told me mom about it, but all she said was, "Wow..you're pretty crazy about that headphone stuff." XP..I guess it is kind of crazy how obsessed I am.
 
And at Starbucks, I saw some black circum-naural headphones that I couldn't recognize. They looked a little bit like Skullcandy aviators, except they were circular rather than triangular.
Other than that, I just saw some apple ibuds and cheap $10 headphones. It's rare to see people with headphones at all in my area.
