I was looking on the Headwize forums a few minutes ago, just for the heck of it, and found my very first post.

I have to look at that and just laugh, and laugh

Funny how I think I will never get an amp... and here I am with two... and so much money used into this addictive hobby...

So, I'm wondering, what were your first posts at headwize/headfi, especially other veteran members? I'm sure we can get a kick out of it.

Well, chych, I found *my* crappy first post! I AM reaaaally embarrassed that I had said the Sony MDR-V900DJ was "good"!!

(Unfortunately, I found that first post buried with the "posted on 0-00-0000 at 12:00 AM". It was in response to a recommendation from "Jeffrey Karp" for the MDR-CD series headphones - the CD2000 and CD780 were mentioned. I know "Jeffrey Karp" is still alive - he had posted in HeadWize in the Electronics & Accessories Forum back at HeadWize a month and a half ago, well after the WTC attacks - he's just waaaaaay too busy these days to even post in these forums.)

I can't find mine right now, but I'm pretty sure it was asking about the best closed headphones for a mix of games and mp3s, under $100.

My first post--ahhh, it was an awakening, my graduation into adulthood. I was a teenager cutting her lawn, dreaming of buying my first car....
She was in her late 30's, drank a little too much after her husband ran off with a cocktail waitress. It was a hot day; I was
wearing only shorts & she invited me in for a lemonade....
errrr...I'm not sure if I'm in the right forum?

My first post was in "headphone sightings 2." I think I was a lurker for a month until then.

There's a guy at my school who has a pair of black K518 DJs. Myself, I'm personally not a fan of DJ headphones, but asked to borrow them anyways. After EQing out the obnoxious bass, though, they weren't bad. Of course, I asked him and he listens to hip-hop so they match his tastes better than mine. (That being said, though, the IEMs I use don't suit my tastes at all.) Too bad he runs them off his PSP, though.

Funny thing is, "that guy" is now one of my best friends. He comes over to listen to my gear (which I have a lot more of now) every so often. And if you ask me now, I don't think the K518s have "obnoxious bass." In fact, I've been eying a pair of Pro 900s lately.
 
Not much later, I made one of those annoying "Which headphone should I get?" threads people are complaining about nowadays. It's only been a year, but it feels like a long time. The SRH440s are still with me, and they're great for a casual listen.
 
Of course, this thread is from such a long time ago...I think the people who posted in this thread before mine would be surprised to read these posts now.

Back in the Dark Ages of 2002, my first post was recommending HeadRoom call their planned MP3-player "the WATTermelon". 
 
The MP3 player never happened, and that old HeadRoom sponsor forum is now gone.

I appear to have been listening to Pawn Hearts at during the night of March 25th, 2009.
