this guy knows what hes doing

Used to ride street (bmx) wearing Philips HP550's 4-6 hours a day.  At night, blasting my cans in my "black-out" gear (dark clothes, bike was matte black/raw) just assumed nobody saw me, never had issues.  They did protect my head on a few occasions, worked pretty well for side-impact protection from the ground.
 
Nowadays, I'll wear my Technics on the train/walking but I always feel odd and they're very low profile DJ style cans so I normally stick to IEM's unless I get irritated with them (can never get both ears to fit properly at the same time).

As of today my Sony MDR v6

I would wear LCD2 in the street if I had one.  It is not uncommon in London to see people in full size cans although I am still quite self conscious about it when I do go out in one.

I know exactly what youre talking about. That said, I don't pay serious attention to my music when I'm outside so bassy iem's are more fun for me.

I wear a pair of AKG 271 and get strange looks all the time...

I am pretty immune about strange stares now....

Nothing bigger than the ES7. Preferrably something with cups the size of the PX200-II without the stupid looking padding on the headband. I keep my hair ultra short. Looks like a mini bra on my head. The flatter (the lowest profile possible) the headband, the better. Also hate it when the arms that holds the cups stick out.

Hmm using my Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro's in public atm. My earplugs broke, so I have no choice. Even though at times I just wear the DT770's for enjoyment anyways

When I lived in Texas a few years ago I got around with a Segway (all employees got one for free, no I'm not Paul Blart). I always wore my HD-800 (and a Sansa Fuze) but I flipped over the handlebars and broke them when I hit a curb and landed on my head. Unfortunately my warranty did not cover it. I tried to do a claim but Sennheiser hung up on me. For $2,800, (mine was recabled) you'd think they'd come with free accidental coverage! I glued all 12 pieces back together but I only get bass from the left driver.
 
BTW In Indiana once I saw a guy in a Tata Nano wearing a K1000. I wonder which cost more?

Note to self: HD800 is a great helmet.

Same here, 20+ year old V6's that still look and sound brand new, there great portable phones.

I used MDR-7506's from mid 90's till I moved out of NYC in 2004 as my portable phones.

Are those out yet? I heard they actually have less/same bass as the XB700's and try to sound better though.

XB1000s. Only for the 70 mm drivers. Besides that, IEMs all the way. I use a $5 radioshack set when i'm in rougher areas around town and then UE3s if it's mostly daily commute.

Unless his recable lowered Ohm's and raised sensitivity I can't beleive he paired it with a Fuze at all 0_0

oh god, What
 
you actually took your HD800 recabled outside?
man, and even more crazy wearing it on a Segway 0_0

DT990's, not walking around, but on a bus.

 

[Mad Lust Envy]

You enjoying the bus's roar with those 990s? O_O

 

[ostewart]

i wear my panasonic rp-htx7, they look kinda funny tho because the arms that hold the cups stick out, i have a thin head. But am looking to get some akg k 518 DJ maybe, bit more portable. I like wearing full size cans, i think they look better. I use mine for on the bus and walking around.

 

[tribestros]

I use my SR60i on campus...they're great for being able to walk around and not worry about getting hit but still enjoying music...
