haha my sister and SO also said to me my HD650 is damn ugly, no sense of design. Like some B&O headphones

Oof, what do people have against these types of things, they are just headphones XD.

YEah, for us its the sound and comfort that matter, but for non audiophile i guess its the aesthetic XD

Like I dont think the appearance of stax can be accepted by normal ppl

I own a 650 and agree with your SO. But it doesn't matter when I put them on because I can't see them. Plus, they sound great!

I let her listen to 650 she said its good too!

I recently got her a beyerdynamic mmx100 because she needs to mic to be portable for office use and she loves the design!

After awhile she is very happy with the sound quality!

She quote” i can hear more than just bass now”

its not "non audiophiles" its just low iq people in general. smart people value quality over everything. I was taught well by my parents when very young to value quality over quantity, my mom would say 1 pair of high quality shoes is better than having to buy 3-4 shoes that fall apart in less time.

when i hear these type of stories you guys are sharing about your friends going crazy about the price or whatever you enjoy spending your own money on makes me wonder why you keep such idiotic type of people around you lol.
