lb_leeIt's been a rough week, and I don't want to talk about any of it.
So instead, witness this GIGANTIC PAIR of $200 headphones I scavenged today. Those ear poofs are the size of VERY GENEROUS donuts, and it feels like the bass is playing Pong in my head. My ears will never be cold again.
Review text includes: "very dense on heavy bass, feels like being punched in the middle of the head" and "strong and well extended bass, but a somewhat strident treble and significantly withdrawn mid-range turned me off." Those fine details are wasted on my hard-of-hearing ass, but they are SO COMFY and SO WARM and you know what, I appreciate that today. Thanks, random headphones.
EDIT: huh, okay, now I know why these headphones were tossed: one of them don't work! How fortunate that I only have ONE WORKING EAR!!! Mwahaha!
