You should have asked if you could demo the Crossfades, what wrong with you?! Lol!

Lol, he got on the stop before I got off so no time.

I went to check out the Dieter Rams exhibit at San Francisco MOMA over the weekend. He was a very influential industrial designer, who emphasized the ethos "less, but better". There was a part of the exhibit that showcased designs that Dieter Rams's ideas influenced, including lots of products from Apple and one very clean and simple looking AIAIAI TMA-1. It's the first time I've seen one of those in person, and it is a very slick looking headphone.

Ugh. I wish headphones would go back to simple model names... that's more confusing than the Mercedes Benz car models. Why not just the Focus? Or the... AI-1? Or, headphones?

Red Beats Studios, friend of mine sold it because his Turbine Gold sounded better 

 Other guy bought it for $100, which is a good deal IMO.

This reminds me;
 
The knock-off Beat's you can find on sites like Deal Extreme sound way better than the actual Beats. haha

Last week I thought I saw some DDM2's on an airplane but I noticed they had a mic/volume control which I thought was weird.  Turns out they were the Brookstone dual drivers.

Saw this cover on YouTube. I actually really like it!

 
I believe they are Sony MDR-V6's.

All on the train today:
 
Sennheiser HD 485 - I've never seen those in person. 
One set of custom IEMs - maybe 1964s but hard to tell. 
Shure SE 425

On TV last night (Palladia TBE), there was some footage of Jay-Z recording "99 Problems" in Rick Rubin's studio, wearing T20v2.

Absolutely abysmal is an understatement...  XD  I see them a lot on campus though -______________-

I own a pair of those. They are absolutely abysmal.

MDR-7506, unless the blue sticker is not legit.  V6 has a red sticker.

Got to demo M40s, 770 Pro and a 380 Pro at a local underground studio.

Ah I see, thanks for the clarification!
 
 
 
While on the way to go study for another class (a 5 minute walk), I saw 3 Beats headphones...and 1 Sony XB headphone.

Saw a pair of Senn HD 205's, and surprisingly a pair of MC5s at school today...

Saw another pair of NC7's, I think thst's four at my school now. A friend let me try them today and after suffering through both the terrible sound quality (Poor bass response, muted guitars, drums, etc) and comfort level, I needed the comfort of my own headphones, only to have another friend let me try his.
 
They were JBL supra-aurals, though I don't know the model. They looked partially opened-backed from a distance, but they weren't. Sound was decent, but it was hard to get a good seal. Other than those, iBeats, Bose in-ears, and a pair of Grado SR060i's on a teacher's desk.
