What New Stuff Have You Bought? If You Care To Share Thead! :)

[speakerman39]

It looks like Amazon has them new for $19.
Also have in gray with blue accents FWIW:

I have been listening to them more. and I suspect the bass is tipped up over a specific range, but it is well done (at least I like it for most music) and it doesn't come through as bloat to my ear.

They come back down to $10 I may just order a couple of sets. Even at $19 they are tempting now.

Cheers,

Phil

Think I will wait and see if they go back down to $10 first. Not in no hurry. Just looking for a good deal. I am aware $19 is also good, but $10 is even better....LOL!!!!

Cheers,

Kind of screwy that New Egg is selling open box for $24 when you can buy new for $19!
You can get Amazon open box for $15.03:

Ya getting it KEW?

 

[KEW]

No, I already have 3 other sets of headphones that I barely ever use. Now I have 4.
Can't think of any reason to have 5, even if it was still available for $10. If I knew someone who would appreciate them, I would gift them to someone, but no one I know listens to headphones on a regular basis.

 

[afterlife2]

So your daughter did not want them?

 

[KEW]

Oh, I never entertained that she would want them.
My plan was to give them to her when she goes to college this Fall. She will accept them as a "just in case" option to help tune out noise in the dorm. Whether she ever uses them is anybody's guess.
However, because I like their sound so much, I'll give her a different pair. If she actually starts using them, then I will let her pick out the ones that sound best to her. I would like to share quality sound with her, but right now, she sees audio as the purview of old farts like me! She'll come around...in time. Teenagers desperately need to be their own independent self, and that is a good thing.

If she does use them, and if she selects this headphone, if I have started listening to headphones more often, and if I have determined that this one is my fave, then I will have absolutely no problem paying the ridiculous price of $24 for a new pair. I'll look at the $14 extra it cost as paying Amazon or New Egg to store them someplace safe for me where I can readily find them when I need them.

and...

Wife caught the pneumonia. Second time in a year. Wondering if we have some bacteria in the air or water. Mold test was negative. Will check well water tomorrow. I tell her she should exercise the Phil Robertson treatment... roll around in the dirt, eat mud/worms/bugs... strengthen her immune system. (I'm real helpful that way.)

After sending my Marantz Blu-ray to the shop 4x and having it finally crap out again, I am done. I may love my Pre-Pro, but I am staying away from anything else Marantz OL

Went with Oppo 103 and so far very happy. Was going to use my PS4 as my go 2 blu ray player, but their is a noticeable difference in picture quality.

My PS4 looks pretty good with BD, but I too always use the 105 for movies.

Only the first in a long line of disappointments and compromises. Prepare yourself.

Just acquired 1976 Klipschorns and a custom-built ST-70. I've had the cornerhorns for a week. FedEx is bringing the amp. Happy camper so far.
