What was your first headphone purchase after coming to Head-Fi?

Shure 840.  Good sounding headphone but became uncomfortable for long listening sessions.  Then I bought like 20 other headphones....because I have no self restraint.

Came to Headfi to research budget IEMs back in 2007, ended up with the Shure EC2.  Bought a Fiio E5 and a Sansa Clip as well.  
Officially joined Headfi in 2009 after which I bought a Total Bithead and HD25-IIs.
 
Oh how my perspectives on audio and dollar value have changed since then.

I purchased the Velour Pads for the SRH-940 and put them on my 840's. That solved the ear fatigue issue and really makes for a comfortable experience. Still not as light or comfortable as my HD600's, but much better than the included pads IMO.

Happy with my DT770 80ohm
and now Oldskool 33 1/3 is on its way

Great place to start. The dt770's have their own place on my desk and in my heart
