I'm one of the few people who usually wears full size headphone as a daily portable on the street. You do get some looks, especially the RP-HTX7 but if it looks modest, understated whatever word you want to use, people don't notice it that much.

In Amsterdam people are used to seeing weird stuff, it's a weird city full of extremes however the full size headphones are usually a rare sight. Most people haven't asked really although today I was talking about Prog Rock with a guy and he recommended 'Relayer' by Yes. He too concluded 'Piper At The Gates Of Dawn' by Pink Floyd is a (mentally) twisted album, perfect to end the day with privately with headphones (although it's also a refreshing breakfast album, my experience). That conversation made my day, I love music.

My good friends definitely know, I've actually gotten quite a few of them to buy nice cans of their own. They're most interested by my new custom TF10s, though.

Yup...

^ lil'knight's picture just made me ROFL. Now my office mates are looking at me weird.

 

[Drag0n]

Ok..let me get this straight.....

HD800's , which are OPEN, while mowing the lawn? Well, there goes the whole purpose for wearing $1300 phones. Youd do just as well with Koss KSC75s in that case.

I hope that isnt a picture of you and its actually just a joke...lol.

^ pic idiosyncratic. It's his phone after all he's entitled to however the usage he sees fit. On a side note I rofled also. I should try wearing my pair on the subway on my way to school. Wonder what kind of leering I'd get.

 

[immtbiker]

At least he has a lawn!

 

[Drag0n]

I dont care about his lawn, i like that screened-in back porch!

 

[Kirosia]

I'm not a fan of lawns for some reason. One could say they put me in a fiery rage.

 

[Pepsi]

LOL!! at Lk's pic. Sucks if you went over those wires with the lawnmower though.

 

[Deep Funk]

I was thinking the same thing...

I am an undergrad student right now, so all the people I see on a regular basis try to be trendy by wearing their iBuy (whatever.steve.jobs.sells.me) buds. But anytime I see someone with phones other than iBuds, I end up walking inappropriately close to them in an attempt to read the fine print on the outside of their cans. My friends are embarrassed to be near me when I do this.
