A week or two ago I discovered head-fi and I've been doing research on these forums since I've been getting into hifi more seriously lately. I'm loving the community and how helpful everyone has been with my noobish queries. Music to me is my home away from home. Once I'm immersed in the world of sound everything else fades out, hence why I am looking for the best sound for me.
Which leads me to the one thing that I guess confounds me a little, in many threads I've seen people talking about how open back or big headphones get you "stares" in public or people caring about what people think of their cans.
If you're enjoying the music if you're loving every second clinging to every note would you really sacrifice your prefered sound just to look good? Seems a little vain to me.
I'm not bashing anyone directly I'd just like to hear some of the communities' thoughts on the subject.
For those of you who don't care maybe share some anecdotes about what people have commented about your cans and how you've responded!
Happy Listening Guys!
