These vids are funny...I think the guy did it to see what kind of a reaction he would get.

Man, they are geek city! I am envious. All I have is the tiny Etymotics.


They are pretty special looking wink.gif That's why my trusty gorilla had to step in, no way i dare put my mug online with 'em on.. lucky enough others aren't so reserved, check out these videos

I used to love my etymotic ER4Ps.. not listened to them in ages.. i just couldn't agree with taking care of them and my ears.. any hint of ear ache afterwards and i'd steer clear of them for a few weeks..

Those are my videos

Unfortunately, they were taken with my old Canon digital camera, which limits them to 10-15 seconds.

Too bad all I can remember is making a fool of ourselves in the street. Now I'm all intrigued by the latest wave of K-1000 love and I don't remember *at all* how they used to sound!

BTW, I was just filming. I'm sure Leeav (NeilPeart), who was wearing the headphones, would love to comment now that his stellar performance from 2 years ago (has it been that long?!) has been unearthed. Right in time for the Oscars!

You know, I blame your video for me having the K-1000's right now. That was the first time I ever saw one, and I was intrigued at first site, and then I bought a pair!

Wow I remember seeing pics of this two years ago.

Amazing how things fly by sometimes.

EDIT: Hmm...

Wasn't the setup something along the lines of iRiver iMP-550 PCDP -> T-AMP -> K1000?

Zoide, do you have any more clips?

Sorry, I just have two of them. All that I have is here.

The thread for the meet where this all took place is here.


Holy sh!t... it was Feb. 26, 2005. Almost 2 years to the day!

Hilarious!
I would not dare to go outside wearing a pair of K1000's.

I like walking around with my K701; if people see it maybe they'll look for it online and land straight into...Head-Fi!

Great video. If there were ever a pair of headphones to be used only in complete darkness...it would be the Stax SR202. Actually, the AKGs look fairly attractive, just so long as you don't have to look at yourself in a mirror.

I wonder if you'd have to roll the amp behind you in a cart.
