admit it...
there were many headphones, but the "BOSE" brand quite caught your attention wasn't it?
we all went through this phase when brand is all that matters

nope, i hate those because too much sound gets in and my music/games can be heard by others and the top of my ears gets rubbed raw

I went through that phase when I was 16 I'm a wee bit older now. if brands were all that mattered I'd be running an ATI card instead of my 8800

It was the best they had (that I knew of) for around 150$ that didn't touch my ears at all. and they were super lightweight. The "BOSE" brand caught my attention because it wasn't Koss or Sony


I've been using headphones for 15 years now, and tried all types.
(i'm a music freak and have always walked or biked everywhere I go)

in the ear, clip on, the "flat" type..... these are the best by far I've tried. the others allow too much wind in when I'm on a bike....although i don't think I'll be taking these outside..

oh, and the day I bought those I was in one of my "I want it now no time to look up reviews" moods

speaking of brands, those 500$ Shure phones look awesome. looks like the part thAt goes in your ear is soft...which could change my mind. since I grew up in the DJ culture, Shure is a brand I notice, and they have the quality as well. maybe when I win the lotto I can get a pair!

I've been using headphones for years too. The only difference is, I've been using the cheap $20 dollar ones. I just recently made the switch to the good stuff. *hides* don't kill me.
