What set of cans, or IEM's, have you had the longest?

Considering I'm only 20, I won't be near you guys. Probably the stock buds from my first sony discman, or a pair of circumaural optimus (radioshack) brand cans that I bought 6-7 years ago

COOL!! Same here. They are just so good for general use, even portable use, they are nice to use. Of course, they sound awesome to!!

I still use my Sennheiser HD-497's occasionally, which I've had for over a year now. Order date 11/9/2004, I still have the invoice

Oldest pair that I bought and still have would be the HD-580s from some 5 1/2 years ago. Haven't used them since I got the 650s though. Because of this I'm giving them to a friend as a holiday gift figuring he'll get far more use out of them than I will. After those are gone, the 650s will become my oldest, worth mentioning can at around a year and a half.

HD515's I got them just under a year ago because the price was right (far less than the $100 retail)

They are light, great for dog walking, and best of all, sound fantastic with many different genres of music. To me, a great all-arounder.


The longest is my sony V6, then my er4p, and sr60

Senn HD580, over two years. They're not going anywhere either... if I have my way, I'll be passing out of this world before they do

. But I've been listening exclusively to my DT880s since I got 'em early this month.
