Saw a guy around campus using an AKG K240 studio. I was surprised, its another one of those places where people are usually using beats around here.

At BC I see a lot of large African gentlemen wearing beats, and people with sony / bose... also this one kid that walks around with hd448s... I had to look that up to make sure but yup that's it. Not great ones, but at least a respectable name, maybe he has something better at home. If you're on here, then hello! I've noticed you lol. Honestly, I never even wear anything outside anymore since my cx250s broke. I hate buying iems so not doing it any more, they always break because it's hard to be constantly careful with them. When they go in the coat pocket who knows what may happen. No idea how these ones broke and I'm done trying. I've worn my k540s out before but never really for walking around, only if going on a trip and I'm going to be a passenger.

Spotted an old school Beyerdynamic DT931 just the other day worn by a middle aged gentleman!

Those Bose earphones are spreading quite quickly...I counted 6 within the day. Ah well, their loss for buying something like that. Otherwise, no other sightings because it's snowing over here now. Not many people walk around with headphones out, with the exception of the blokes with MDR V7506s. But those are built like tanks.

At the YMCA earlier, I saw lots of iBuds, I think a pair of Klipsch S4i's, and I even saw people working out with beats solo's and studio's. I also saw some people with off brand on ears.

Transparent black Shure SE215 or SE315... Looks identical... I'm assuming the SE215 because the SE315 aren't very popular. Just a typical day at school with fellow students with Beats asking me what's strapped onto the back of my iPhone. Hahaha I just tell them they won't understand why... Most of them think it's to make my headphones or IEMs louder... DERP

Took the bus to get some Mesa Pizza earlier and saw someone with some custom iems, although I have no idea what make.
Also saw someone with V-moda V80s, which is a first for me.
Only interesting 'finds' today, ibuds and beats mixed in. In minneapolis, you see LOTS of beats studios/solos while walking the streets. Mainly visually loud RED ones

A couple of Koss headphones (DJ2000 surprisingly and a PortaPro), Sennheiser HD380 I believe, and a SR80i.
I found it incredibly sad that the Beats Studio's have just as much sound leakage as the SR80i's from my experience on the bus today.

I really don't feel the need to post Beats sightings, since I probably see at least 10 pairs a day, but lately I've been seeing a bunch of Grados, and even two HD 25-1 II's today. It seems that in the past few months or weeks, in general, there have been a declining number of stock earphones/iBuds.

I don't think that is an issue of leakage per se, as much as a function of volume. Its like when you drive down the street and someone is blasting their ridiculous car subwoofer at full power.

Saw a guy with V-moda m80 using monster beat's cable (instead of the v-moda cable) on caltrain (northbound) the other day. Thought that was a little weird.

what campus would that be?
As far as my sightings, seen a few ultrasones mainly the 580s/780s around campus and lots of beat in ears.
