First you convince me that the Sennheiser 490s are trash (you were right),

THEN you get me to start asking my family to buy me headphones off the internet (hello V6's!),

THEN you get me to use my spiffs to aquire headphones (salesperson - "so Don, thanks for buying that printer, would you like a mousepad?", Don - "no, but I hear koss headphones are nice" - hello KSC-55's!).

THEN!! you convince me to buy a 10year old cd player off of ebay with my leftover Christmas money!

THEN!!!! I am trading stuff for resisters and capacitors and other such stuff (thanks Erix!) and saving Altoids tins like crazy!

NOW IF THAT WEREN'T BAD ENOUGH, you got me blowing $35 bucks on the LAST TWO PAIRS of KSC-35's in Little Rock! Maybe even all of ARKANSAS!!!!

Where will it end?!? Am I doomed to lurk the headphone forums of cyberspace forever? Will I ever be able to go out to lunch again? Will my wife ever be able to trust me with a credit card?

Since discovering Headwize and HeadFi in December, I've...

bought Sennheiser HD600
bought Sony D-25S
sold Sony D-25S
bought ART DI/O
bought Corda HA-1
bought Beyerdynamic DT831
bought MG Head OTL
sold MG Head OTL
bought Audio Technica AW2002 (from Singapore, no less)
and am in the process of buying an RKV (amp)

not to mention the CDs...

I wish I could say I was finished, but the truth is that the itch has gotten worse.

Careful, if they sense blood in the water they'll move in for the kill....I see the big O somewhere in your future.

How'd you guess? Except, unless my side jobs go well, I'll be 580's before the 600's.

I also bought at least 5 CDs and 20+ LPs since Thanksgiving.

Well, know I feel a little better. Exclept I've been doing this in the middle of buying and making some repairs to a house.

I just hate to think whats going to happen once I start getting some of these amps going that I am [size=small]FINALLY[/size] starting to work on.

Oh, well. I guess I'll just have to suffer through.

OMG Kelly
You are really in a buying frenzy, unfortunately the price of the equipment you are buying continues to esculate upwards

RKV + AT 2002 Wow!

I think those head-fi meetings you've been attending are effecting your equipment budget.
