More headphone goodness.

tssandwichMy old Technics headphones, which I think I got in 1994, bit the dust the other day-- the wire that ran to the right can frayed to the point where I would have had to do some extremely fine splicing to keep it going. Seems to me I spent about a hundred bucks on them, so I guess I came out ahead. Sennheiser has a low-end closed ear set that should be sufficient for work. I'm currently waiting for them to arrive.
As a result, I've been "forced" into bringing my good headphones into work. While they aren't closed headphones like the old Technics, which means that I hear outside noises (and I'm told, people can vaguely hear what I'm playing), they do sound absolutely beautiful. Even plugged into (audiophile horror of horrors) an iPod.
A critic whose name I've forgotten once described The Stooges' album Fun House as the "greatest album ever recorded by white people." Some days, I think he's absolutely right.
