When I first moved to California nearly 22 years ago, my first major purchase
as soon as I got here was a pair of Sennheiser HD424's. $75 back then I
think; hella expensive for a new (and broke) college Freshman.
I just used them again last night.
(I listen to music at work on them before the supervisors have left and I can
crank the Mac speakers (-: Speaking of which, MacAmp 1.0beta1 is out ... )
In all that time, I've replaced the ear pads *once*. The 2nd pair could use
another swap-out now, to be honest, but other than that ... nothing else.
Nothin' but Sennheisers baby ...
(Plus, they don't turn your ears into cauliflower after 45 minutes)
