The so-called fashionable folks (whatever defines that) just have ibuds


I second this. iBuds denote a certain style (over substance, in the head-fi opinion) to the general population. I seriously doubt anyone but Headfiers recognize stylish headphones that matter. I am constantly aware of headphones I see in the public, especially airports. The only other status type headphone I ever see is the Bose QC2. People seem very proud of these.

I had the ATH-EC7's before and they generated quite some attention from my peers at school. when i tell them they costed me 150 they always ask 1.50 for some reason. i got so tired of saying a hundred fifty that i just said yeah, it's 1.50.
but seriously, EC7's are unique and sexy. They make me feel like i'm a secret agent with some high-tech earpiece or something. I ordered the ES7's also, another pair of sexy sexy headphones. a little too bling for people, but when was the last time you see bling on headphones?

Nah, they're just geeks who think they're fashionable.

That'd have to be the Mike Jones edition grados. That's some solid competition for your "sexy" AT's.

Every time I like of a headphone someone offers another and I say Yes that one. No maybe this one.

The AT Woodies
That Panasonic IEM (that I saw for the 1st time today in the Portable forum)
The Grado HPs
The Qualias (need an appointment just to try them out - now that's stylish)
