ok, for the first time something i did not do.

YKYAAW you mail CERN asking if they could lend you a superconductor from LHC to give a try with headphones as a cable, and see if it sounds better.

That'd be hilarious I wonder what they'd say...

Just got the Sony MDR-7506 and Schiit Fulla. The Sony is a great backup headphone. Super-light, very comfortable, in common use in music studios and other professional applications all over the world. A little (okay, quite) bright, but I was looking for something brighter anyway, since the V-MODA Crossfade LP sounds like mud and I have to wait until next week before I receive the beyerdynamic DT 880 Edition 660 Ω and even more weeks before I receive the JVC HA-SZ2000.
 

  When you sell your car to buy a piece of Sennheiser Orpheus HE90!

 
YKYAAW you recognize TheGoldenEars from other threads, even though he (or she?) just joined Head-Fi this month.

 
And lol. Selling your car just to buy "a piece of" that headphone. When I talked to owners to see how much they would be willing to sell it for, $10,000 was the lowest offer I got. O_O

YKYAAW you spend a day searching for business chairs in which it is nice to listen to music.. then buy one, manual assembly it, listen to music in it, dis-assembly it, return it, take money back, then place an order to an ikea store for buying a better chair in which you can listen to music...
 
reason of return: it seems that it supported in theory people at a weight of 80 kg max, and i wight more, and this caused it to bend a little, so the thingy that made it go up or down would stop working... this should be a lesson to me for trying to buy cheap from a carrefour in-shop of chairs...
 
YKYAAW you listen to music while you work out, even if this means having to stop from time to time to change the music playing... listening really keeps me going.

YKYAAW you want to see audiophile chairs!?

So then, what is the most ideal headphone listening position?

 

[Dobrescu George]

...this is a long discussion... Mostly, you should really buy a very very comfy buisness or office chair.. there are leather or imitation chairs that cost around 100$ or less and give you so much better experience than normal chairs..
 
i really recommend something like ikea torkel for begginers..
 
for more advanced people a 300$ big comfy chair of that type will make the listening session even better.
 
if you have where to put it, and want the ultimate, an ~300$ armchair should give you the audio nirvana, while listening. 
 
it is fun how much how you sit and in what affects what you hear in music...

 

[Music Alchemist]

YKYAAW you get up out of your chair and move your body to the music as if your body has become the music!

My kids freak out when I start dancing with my headphones on.

lol, yeah, I only move around to music when I know no one's watching, because I look like a crazy person when I do it!

I sit on my sofa when I really want the comfort. Though if I had a GT OMEGA Racing chair...

 

[TRapz]

YKYAMLW you're upset that you missed an AMA from one of your favorite singers...
 
Gah, Brian Wilson did an AMA last night and I totally forgot about it. It would've been so cool to talk to him.

I sit/lay wherever, but usually in my uncomfortable wood chair in my room, while doing homework. While out listening to music, I'm on the bus- not the most comfy place to sit.

 

[TripBitShooter]

The buses in my country are like 95% Mercedes-benz, the rest are all volvos. I find them pretty comfortable, but still way too noisy to listen to music properly

 

[drgajet]

I have an old recliner in my basement next to my home rig but every time I put on my headphones and recline I fall asleep. I'm not sure if that is good or bad.
