No pic atm but mine are sennheiser px100's

Some of you spend lots of $$ on phones.

that's a nice little portable phone, one of the best in fact.

kinda miss mine, but now prefer IEM for outdoor use.

meanwhile my el cheapo JVC RX700 remain faithfully as my dorm phone. :D

I bought them mainly to use on my Cowon D2 pmp, which i love a lot. They do sound pretty good to me, i use a desk mic for talkies.

i brought myself an early Christmas present, bcs the ear puffy stuff on my Creative Aurvana Live! has started to get marks and crack on one side some time ago, so i went to local shop and brought some Denon AH-D1100 listened to them and 2 others before decided taken time home with me for only 89usd with 1year more warranty by signing up to their "Hifi club", normal price tag on them was 213usd :eek:

so i hope they will play nice with my Asus Xonar Essence STX



the small gold plated connector to turn mini jack into 3,5mm jack didn't wanna show, but i found it xD







my old Creative Aurvana Live! had them for some years and costed 89usd aswell (the crack are on the other side):

Very nice headphones Puma! Some people buy the Creative Aurvana Live! (CAL!) because both are the same...so whichever is cheapest. I almost bought a pair then found a used pair of Denon D2000's for $20 more...and had to jump on them!

online and locally in my country prices for the Creative Aurvana Live! and the Denon AH-D1100 prices are the same for now.

It's not that i don't liked the Creative once, i still have them, and they served me well, but i wanted to try something else and i felt it was time for change ^^
