Class of 2014!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Congrats! and welcome to the 2014 thread.


No, most of their premium content I can get through my broker or elsewhere (can't get the research reports but I already get the S&P and Reuters ones through Scottrade). so I stick with their free stuff.

I mostly just like this page and the key ratios one.

you can do that at miami too, but i don't think case records lectures.

I've got Etymotic ER6is which are no Ultimate Ears but still quality.

dude those things cost a fortune, you really do go through your headphones like crazy huh?
 
I'd kill for some UEs. This kid I met at a summer program who was super rich had the custom fit UEs, ridiculous 😱
 
i'm pretty happy with my Equation headset, i've dropped it on the wooden floor soooo many times over the past year and half and it still works perfectly. sounds awesome too.

what is that? link??
 
I need some nice headphones. I use the $20 Sony wrap around ear bud things, and they crap out on me about once a year, so I get new ones. The last time it was on a flight. 👎

It's pretty sweet. I'm not an audiophile, so I don't care too much for a neutral sound, I find audiophile favs like the Sony MDR-V600 to be way too lacking in bass and sybilic sounding with the trebles(the ear-scratching sssssss when someone sings s). It's bass is nice and tight, not like those stupid "skullcrushers", and I find the mids and highs to be pretty damn clear too.

If you wanna get high quality earbuds, the etymotics, shures, and the UE's are all pretty good. If your ear isn't too discerning, the Sony EX71 fontopias are pretty good too for the price(~40 bucks these days).

niiice! 👍 looks like good noise cancellation

yea i'm in my own world when i put those bad boys on :laugh: best headset i've owned so far. i have a feeling that i would probably like it much better than the much more expensive ones like the high end Sennheisers or something.

i haven't had a pair of earbuds since i lost my sony's, i'll prolly have to get a new pair at some point of time.
 
I'm all about comfort and I don't like most earbuds, so IDK. It's kind of hard to try on earbuds in advance. :laugh:

I HATE HATE HATE HATE the iPod earbuds, FWIW.
I love these because they actually go in-ear, and snugly, too. Don't even feel them after they're in!

lol yea, especially the in ear canal ones i've suggested you. i think most mainstream users would like the equation rp-22x's or the sony mdr-v600's.
 
They hurt my ears really bad.

That's why I like the Sony ones, because they don't hurt my ears and wrap around to stay on.

the in ear canal ones? those can be pretty bad, but the sony fontopias aren't in ears, they're regular earbuds and they're fairly comfortable. the IEC ones take a while to get used to, i think.

😡 Last time I checked, I was in 1st.

Kind of amazing. I know I passed everything, it's a beautiful day out, I'm done with undergrad, I know where I'm going to med school, I just ate a celebratory Caramello that I made Spurs drunkenly buy me last night, I'm about to shower and go get thai food with him, we're going to go to roflcon after, then get drunk..... It's a good, good day.

I felt the Jason Mraz song "Life is Wonderful" was an appopriate first pick for my first song of (temporary) freedom..

Good song!!


Troof!

is it weird that i have owned most of the headphones that you guys have talked about. i have went through about 30-50 pairs of earphones in the last 5 years.

if you are looking for UE headphones (which are owned by logitech), amazon always has an online black friday sale on them. 2 years ago, i got the 3s for $50, 6 months ago i got the 10s for $100. its actually on sale for $240 on amazon now. the new logitech version should be coming out soon for $500-$600 (i wouldn't spend that much).

i use earphones a lot because of the gym and mobility. unfortunately, UEs have weak ass cords so they break easy. its hard to pay so much attention taking care of them. I used to use V-moda ones for general use (they aren't that bad) but they broke too.

One thing I learned - never get store warranty for headphones, they are useless and they never honor it.

I think at least UE's have replacement cable's for $20 that are pretty good, so I can fix that **** easy. thank God
 
if you have a record store going out of business... or a Target, you can get Shure (probably the E2Cs) pretty cheapo

so what would you recommend on a budget <$150??
 
Sennheister CX300 (my most popular **** it, it broke headphones) < $30, sometimes $12-15. sometimes skull kandy is in that range. V-Moda if you like bass (its actually not bad, but it is def bass heavy)

Shure E2Cs and Etymotic regular ones are always under $75 and they are great.

I would get the Sennheiser ones because they are great for portability and are always a good fit. I would then wait for the Triple Fi 10s to go under $100 (or the new UEs) around late this year. They will def go under $100, they actually went down to $50 with rebate last year. pretty sick deal. you won't look back (even though they are light on bass) because of the cable replacement feature.
