V6 Red Stickers on Cans!

[ppl]

LOL:It is good to Know that that solvent worked, Yes i have done lots of similar dumb things at times as we all have, If it was not for the fact that i had done lots of dumb things with Plastic and Solvents i would have tried that on the V6 headband as well. I am one of those people that have the same mindset as tvhead, and grab some supper potent stuff to get rid of unwanted labels on stuff and i have found out the hard way that some times the Item you want to remove the unwanted lettering from also gose away with the Lettering. Do i still do these Dumb things! You Bet all the Time. I just make a mental note of the results for future reference.

I left my stickers on. I guess its because I'm partial to shiny objects. That and because I laugh whenever I see them. My mind does something like this

"heh, they say for digital but they are really analog. That's funny. Oooohhhh, shiny!"

Anyway, the sticker are going to stay for a bit longer.

I'm leaving the stickers on for a little longer, because I have nothing to get rid of the remaining glue after. But I think they would look better/more professional without the stupid stickers. After all, you don't see all those flashy things on studio equipment.. And Mark Levinson gear doesn't have "for Digital" or "Super Mega-BASS" on the front.

Makes me think of those so called "Sport" mini-van. Yeah, like anyone is gonna use a Dodge Caravan (Sport, mind you) in a european rally or a NASCAR race...

One of the big secrets of sticker removal (in my experience) is not immediately throwing away the sticker after it's removed.

Take the sticker and use it to remove any adhesive it left behind when removed. This also worked with my V6's (my 7506's still have the stickers on).

When I pulled the stickers off my V6s there was no left over glue..If there was, I just used my finger to rub it off.. Anyways, if you don't have the sticker to help remove the left over adhesive, you can use some gaffer's or masking tape. I just lay it right on top of the clumps of adhesive, pluck, and repeat until it is all gone.

Sony made the stickers to easily pulled off. Just peel em off. I just did. It leaves absolutely no resedue! THERE MADE TO COME OFF!

Yeah, I just pulled them off of mine earlier this afternoon. Quick, and left no glue residue.

Who cares? Seesh, i've had my 7506's since May, i'll leave em on until they start peeling off on their own, i got better things to worry bout, like buying some new toys for xmas, namely:

AKG 501's
Beyer's 770 Pro
Ordered a JMT amp
and maybe, just maybe, Senns 580's

Ahhh....i'm gonna be soooooo busy!

Boy I dont Feel so bad now that i Know i am not alone in not only having both the V6's as well as the 7506's but removing the stickers on the V6's and Leaving them on the 7506's Humm... I think we are starting a movement. I meen it's Cosmic that so manny People Do the same thing with-out realising others! world wide, are Doing the same thing. Futhermore i am sure this is only done amoung head-fiers and Headwizers so im Thinking We have a Headwizer/Head-Fi'er Colective Mind Happening. Wow BTW I am Listening to Apehx Twins Disc two Selected Ambient Works II Right now while Wrighting this.
