Go mountain biking and then listen to them. The sense of accomplishment and the knowledge that they're waiting for you when you return will make them sound even sweeter.
My N6 are out for delivery and I'm hoping they'll arrive soon because I want to go out road biking
I did... 2 and half hours mountain biking, a lot of hard work climbing up (at certain points, to motivate myself was imagining the K10s) and great fun/trill rolling downhill (fell from the bike, but nothing too serious)... (to be continued)
Going mountain biking is how you get dirt on the bike, avoid at all costs, that's what I do. My bike got a bath yesterday, lubed the chain, then went for my ride at about 7pm. Even got my new brake pads in from ebay, should be good on those for years.
You are right, riding on trails and getting your bike dirty (especially with mud) or constantly pounding the front fork and rear shock, it is expensive maintenance, and safety wise, not advisable... BUT, adrenaline rush and fun out weights the cons (for me).
Let's continue with the K10s, managed to spend 1 uninterrupted hour with it (sorry, was pretty tired after the ride
). It
was just pure bliss, closing my eyes on the couch with an Heineken bottle and hearing the details music coming at you from different angles... I felt asleep very quickly
Nevertheless, the K10C does sound slightly warmer from what I recall, when auditioning the K10U... maybe because of the better seal you get from the K10C...
Which DHC is that?
And, the connector is pretty tall. Will it look funny when wearing it?
Just Eidolic (http://eidolic.com/) DIY parts used to make the cable looks a little bit more nicer.
Well, coming from someone who wears over the ear closed headphones when traveling... having the connectors sticking out a little bit more, does not bother me
... besides, most of the people will be wondering about the blue things stuck into my ears and not connectors
