There's a kid in one of my classes who has Sennheiser PX100s. And I passed someone in the computer science hall who has a pair of Ety 6 (or 6i's).

Everyone else seems to have a iBuds or whatnot. For me the iBuds lasted less than two weeks. They already sounded pretty bad to some of the other ones I had (Sony MDR E837, and some cheap Panasonics).

And I'd like to add - if you're on facebook ([yourschool].facebook.com), could you add "Head-fi" to your interests? Nice to know who's in college-fi on facebook

I saw a grey haired gentleman with the card-sized Creative Muvo Slim in it's attractive flip-cover leather case along with Creative EP-630 Silver canalphones today at the express stop. I approve!

you should see the humanities side of campus (west), nothing but cheap sony and ibuds. but there were some PX100s, and ER6, FS-1, and UE Sf3 i think. i facebooked "head-fi" under interest already... on the bus i did see a 595 though, and a SR80 in VLSB.

I got my ex a pair of PortaPros, she lived in Vancouver until late September 2005... maybe it was her! She had great ears, and a real knack for describing the differences between different sounds... but when it was her own money, she just didn't care...

Sadly, my current girlfriend just does not give a damn about sound whatsoever, and only, only, only wanted a pair of QC2's since she borrowed her friend's pair once and loved the noise cancelling... so I had to cave and get her a pair of those...

I cried knowing I spent time in my life earning money to buy a Bose product...

I tried pitching etys... "What, you want me to stick those IN my ears?!?"

*sigh*

I've worn mine twice outdoors, and have brought them to the office quite a few times, but usually the SR325's are the ones that leave home...

at Balmoral Beach i saw a couple of blokes avin a BBQ outside their Multi-million dollar water-front house *shakesfist* in Sydney today, one had a ATH-A900 on and one had an Orpheus set up and was listening.

Something's wrong with me

I suddenly feel like getting the Bose QC2's or the triports...Seems like everyone's talking about them! Argh....I know I shouldn't get a Bose product but why?!?! There seems to be this urge deep down inside me...

Really? I ride the NY subway to school and back everyday and i've never seen Grado in real life. maybe i just sleep too much.
And my sighting is: this guy that i hate goes to my school and i saw him with ATH-CM7. Lucky i had my EC7's on me that day and saw the look on his face like

my school has tons of ibuds and triports. depresses me.

Go to a Bose store and have a listen... you'll quickly lose your urge.

What the heck? I think that sighting is going to be hard to beat. You saw an Orpheus in the Wild!

Yeah, I've seen at least a dozen pair of SR60, a handful of SR80, and once I saw an SR125.

On a recent trip I saw a father and son at SeaTac each with SR325's. Not what I'd choose for the airplane, but to each their own.

That's another thread. But don't feel bad. Bose headphones are a perfectly nice way to listen to music while enjoying Thomas Kinkade paintings.

Sighted on a recent trip to San Francisco:

2 Sennheiser PX100s
3 Sony MDR-EX71s (2 black, 1 white)
1 Sony MDR-EX81
1 Ety ER6
1 Sennheiser HD201
3 Bose QC2
1 Shure E2c
4,673,349 white iPod earbuds

 

[WhiteShadow]

I just talked to a guy at my campus cafetaria. He had shure e2c and the iaudio x5l. I forgot to ask if he visits headfi.

 

[incognitoedleon]

I saw a guy wearing a pair of AKG K240S on campus the other day.
