I'm fine.  I just don't like intrusive adverts, especially when I have AdBlock+ and No-Script as Firefox add-ons.

Right, I've re-installed and so far, so good.

same with AKG

Bose is overpriced these days, become too well-known.  Sennheiser is approaching that status

Really?  My Senns were only $25, got them late last year.  They've actually dropped in price since then (now $18 on Amazon).

Apparently you've never listened through HD202s, they sound excellent.  High price != high-quality all the time.

Get Sony MDR-R10s lololololololol.

In general, you can't go wrong with Sennheisers, but the price range is get-what-you-pay for.

I have HD 280s, but given the chance I'd get $150+ headphones, likely Sennheiser HD series or Audio Technica ATH series.

Chances are if the company makes good microphones, (Sennheiser, AT, AKG, Shure) then they're not going to f**k up headphones and monitors. If you can afford Grados the holy sh*t yes.

And remember the golden rule of headphones: If you buy Skullcandys,

I WILL END YOU.

I'd say Senns out of that pair but I'd personally recommend some nice Koss studiophones.

Oh sh*t, I'm still doing my Choirs review.

unfortunatelly, no. only sony, thast why i got the xb700. but i want to try some open back, the only senn i have had were the 202 and i hated them, no bass at all. i like my prog with overwhelming punchy bass.. i read the ath ad700 doesnt have that, must read some hd555 reviews now

any other ideas? i've been reading about grados, but never tried one.
