I know several people who listen through cheap-ass speakers that I can't
stand and yet they think that their speakers are the best because they got
the sound they wanted without paying big bucks.
Just because I don't like them doesn't make them the shittiest speakers you
can buy. It just makes them a speaker that I don't like personally. At the
end of the day, all audio-visual stuff is subjective no matter how
convincing the objective side of it is. If you think what you have is the
best money can buy, then so be it. But at the end of the day, the caveat to
one and all out there asking about what's good and what's not is that you
should only use other people's comments as guidelines and not gospel. Trust
your own senses. They will be the only things to lead you to the product
that suits you, but at least you got your starting point.
Sorry, but you are being facetious about it all. Make your recommendations,
but don't preach that it is impossible for a pair of headphones to be good
just because you didn't like them. I'm no big fan of the 888's personally.
In fact, I'm very pleased with the 868's even though I need to put my
megabass on the first setting. But then again, I do spend more time in the
car than I do with my portable. But that is just my opinion and if someone
asks for it, I'll give it to them. But they also need to be their own judge
once they've gotten their pointers from all the people who they asked.
Adios,
LarZ

That may be true, but there is no way -- *no* way -- that a pair of Sony
earbuds are the "best sounding headphones that you can buy." Only someone
with bad hearing that couldn't really hear differences between bad, fair
and good 'phones would think so (I'm not being facetious here -- there
are lots of people who really can't tell the difference, and for them,
audio is a much cheaper hobby :-)).
