new phones

I got some new headphones. I decided I’ve had enough of the inner-ear type headphones for now. Most of what I listen to is bathed in distortion anyway or housed in a less-than-stellar mp3 file so I can’t really justify hi-dollar earphones. These Sennheisers were rated as very good for the price (cheap!) so I got a set. Performance is consistent with the review. Highs aren’t as good as they could be, but the sound is full and the over-ear design blocks out most other stuff around you so you don’t need to turn up the volume as much. As long as you don't max out the bass on your music player, I don't think they'll distort.

all things considered, it wouldn't have helped any. And I wasn't willing to spend 1/10 of my monthly pay on a set of headphones when the Air Force so generously let me buy a pair for two bucks.

what, you don't want to hear the Korean talking in your ear as clearly as possible?

Wow, so many things I didn't know about headphones. Of course, the only time in the last decade that I really used headphones outside of the gym was when I was using them to listen to my Korean tapes from DLI. For those, you don't have to worry about the quality of the sound, you just have to be able to hear.
