Shure 215s while in Kent.
You're in me?


Not so much a sighting, but surprising reaction.  I bought B&W C5's the other day and though I loved the sound, they were so uncomfortable to me I took them back today (I have P7's on order coming tomorrow.)  So I walked into Best Buy and walked over to the returns area.  There were 2 girls and a guy behind the desk.  I set the headphones down and the girl that wasn't waiting on me says "You're returning the C5's!?!?!?  Those are my favorite headphones.  I love mine!"

All I ever see is a few guys at work have Bose QC's. :confused_face:
Awesome. All I see at Best Buy is this chubby guy that usually is in the computer department who get paid to wear Beats and Sol Republiv around his neck.


Nah. Kent, the Garden of England. I was in Tonbridge sitting entrance exams for Tonbridge School. Sorry to disappoint :p  
I'm a garden also, lovely.

Saw what could be a CIEM today at Nex shopping centre at around 10.30 am . It had the shape of a GR07 but it had a metallic faceplate and completely covered his ear. I was using my R2ls and The guy was also trying to find out what I was using.

I'm impressed, I saw a HD598 on a guy carrying a guitar case here, walking in the quiet suburbs.

Saw a dude with what appears to be some Sennheiser PX-100's. They're smaller in real life than what they look in pictures.

True that. I found a display pair of the PX100-ii at a store, and it really was small. Never thought on-ears could go as small as that without compromising on the sound. It's like an oversized earbud that couldn't fit in your ear (if that even made sense).

Yup. On-ears kinda sit awkwardly between full-sized circumaurals and IEMs. But they don't always compromise sound though, you can find tiny on-ears that sound much better than gigantic over-ears.

...like the PX100. They're seriously great portables, especially since most thieves think they're just Coby crap and ignore you.
