[soupy]

dude, forget the sr80s, show me more pics of that room

.
I've always wanted to paint one of my rooms a ridiculous color...like orange or lime green.

hehe, its less intense when you see the entire room in context, as the ceiling and carpet are white/beige, ad the rest of my furniture is either black or white.
It doesnt rub off with slight contact, only if you try intentionally to rub it off, it will come off a bit.

wonder what happened to resale value of them...

eh, im not planning on selling them anytime soon... they are high end enough for me (although that may not be the case in several months, seeing how this place has a tendency to lighten the wallets of its members)

Doesn't growing up in a red room make you mad? As in, insane?

I was concidering doing the opposite, painting the middle part with "SR-80" from black to red, leaving the silver.

Cool mod, although I prefer the silver version

if spending $95 for a pair of headphones is crazy, then wrap me in a straitjacket and send me to the asylum.

Hmm... the room I had immediately post college was painted in its entirety, ceiling and all. It was very large, a master suite with a separate sitting area/bathroom, about 500 sqft total. Lemme see if I can remember - north/south walls painted an instutional blue, east/west navy blue, left half of ceiling a red similar to the one used here (spray paint), right half hunter green (also spray paint), with a white 2" racing stripe separating the halves. All vents, light switches/sockets were spray painted purple. Window trim and baseboards painted black. Gold blinds. I absorbed _alot_ of party favors in that period and we would throw largish parties from time to time... upwards of 2 dozen people would hang out, lie on the floor/bed/couch and stare at the ceiling while having philosophical discussions and the like. Man, I met so many hotties cause of it

I just spent $1500 on cans. As you might imagine I have already been committed...

Me too. I think we might have to pay sonick a visit and show him what happens when someone tries to imitate us

Dude, you've got a FREAKING HUGE room there man, it's insane ... all the room for your gear against the wall and stuff. I have too much stuff in too small a space, it's hard to walk around haha.

I sharpied my MS-1s red too - now my portable rig (red Zen Micro + MS1s) go well together.

And I don't care about their resale value 'cause I'm never selling mine!

I'm a huge fan of the red/black combo. Though just died my hair black with violet highlights or whatyoucallem instead of red for a change.

hehe, i know the urge to color something when there is a sharpie close but i learned my lesson. I used a red sharpie just like u to color in keys on my keyboard and it was a mess. The color rubbed off everywhere cloths, desk, and mouse i eventually had to replace the keyboard.
