Sure - as you can probably guess up first are all of the headphones from the Fashion thread. Not much to do there - just assign numerical scores and shorten the reviews a little - but I've been busy with some high-end IEMs so that's been put off.
 
After that - two Sonys, two Sennheisers, two Audio-Technicas, two Ultrasones, a Philips, a Pioneer, and an AKG (not necessarily in that order). 
 
(If you or anyone else can guess all of them correctly in one try, I'll send that person an earphone of my choosing).

 

[Armaegis]

Hah, I'll play that game... (and I don't even like earphones)
 
Sony: V150, 410
Sennheiser: HD 202 and 218
Audio Technica: ES3, M40
Ultrasone: DJ1, 15G
Philips: The Stretch
Pioneer: HDJ-500
AKG: Q460
 
I would be seriously impressed if someone actually guesses correctly. There's a couple that I've seen mentioned so they would be an "educated" guess, but for brands like Sony and Sennheiser who have more models than you can shake a stick at in the "portables" category alone, nevermind the entire line, plus all the old models that are still around in the stores... well it really is just a shot in the dark at that point.

Hey Mike can I cheat? lol jk

 

[ljokerl]

A for effort, 3/11 for performance... Some good guesses though.
 
I promise that there are no vintage headphones - all of the sets are currently in production (to the best of my knowledge) and all but one can be purchased on amazon.
 
Also, I think I will up it to three tries for those who actually want to participate.

You could but it won't give you all of the answers.

4/11. For those who want to do a bit of analysis, two of the correct answers are shared with Armaegis.

2/11 with one correct answer shared with one of the previous posters (don't want to make it too easy, right?) 

 
All of the headphones do meet my portable criteria, i.e, are at least one of the following
1. Supraaural
2. Foldable or Collapsing
3. Equipped with a portable (<5ft, 3.5mm termination) cable
 
Also, the K330 is an IEM

Ha, right you are. Also, you just gave me an idea to write an Einstein's Problem-type problem for headphones

Darn, I was trying to aim for 0/11.
I guessit also shows that I don't follow AKG at all.

What would the questions be like? Would it still make us guess on a mystery headphones or would it be all logic based like Einstein's question?

 

[JeckyllAndHyde]

hi ljokerl!
 
any impressions of HFI-15G coming soon? I'm really curious about Yours feelings about them

 

[ilia7777]

So I guess you will be releasing IEM list ? I'm looking forward to that. Is HF5 on the list ? I'm just curious where it would be placed in your ranking. This guy really needs burn in.
