People want b***ts because it's marketed to their sorry souls.
I get people saying to me: 'B***ts are way better than V-Moda. I've never even heard of V-Moda. B***ts are way better and have much better bass'
Have you tried amping B***ts?

Anyway let me share a hilarious story.
I was in the UK in HMV (hifi store) and was testing my LP2's flex headband over the store models, all the popular... Unmentional brands.
So I flex and twist away my now-sold LP2s. A stupid girl tries to do the same as I did with my LP2s, flex the headband.
Problem is she tried to twist the headband of the B***ts St**io, which coincidently snapped. A security guard pulled her away from the headphone booth and told her she had to pay for the damage.
Plastic vs. Steelflex headband. Plastic obviously won and B***ts are the best. You should all go buy a pair because Dre said they were the best and everyone else has them. I want a pair soooo bad.
Not.

I does that a lot! Then I calculated how much my gadget worth and is it possible to sell it and buy that... My answer is always negative!

If I sell my gear, I could get an sr-007 and use my t1 as amp. Or I could just spend all my money on sr-009

What is this T1 that can power an electrostatic? For $2500 I would prefer to own an HD800 + (something different TH600/HE500) than just the SR007

YKYAAW you have a "if I sell my gear" but would never actually even dream of doing such a thing.

Indeed! I was really thinking of selling one of my pair and. I even let my friend who's note rested in buying it to test them! At the end, still can't let go if it :/

Stax srm-t1. Pretty similar to srm-006, and doesn't actually work well with sr-007 anyway.. Just spend some hours with my uncles 60-80k speaker rig. I am pretty exhausted -_-

Everynow and then I have a 'what if I sold all my vinyl' moments. I could probably get a LCD2 with amp+DAC to match, and then I remember how much happier I am with my vinyl + cheap TT + SR80i's
