I do not go into a Ferrari salon and start to publicly beat myself up that I can't afford those supercars. I might go in to have a look though and enjoy the sight. I would suggest something similar here until your financial situation changes. :beerchug:

Do you pelt with eggs every BMW you see passing on the street? Most of those people are "wealthier" than me. I choose to take the bus to work.

Life is about choices. This is my hobby and it's where I allow myself to spend my hard earned and very average disposable income. I enjoy it tremendously.

Enjoy what you have! (also stop trolling, peeing in other people's baskets, etc., etc.)

We all have to start somewhere. Here's where I started in 1986.

The only way is up! 👍🏻🍕👍🏻

Complimentary headphones from Pan-Am coupled with an AM radio from Radio Shack would be another first step to developing one's Head-fi station. Did I mention the synergy was awful?

(Really showing my age here...)

I bet, taking its cost into account, it represented a pretty good value! :laughing:

Luckily, you had no idea what synergy is (at least, not then)...

Naturally. The Pizza Hut headphones only really came to life once you modded the bass port, rewired them for balanced use, and, yes, applied velour pads. Moreover, 100 hours of burn in would generate a tad more soundstage.

At that point, they could easily rival an entry level pair of headphones from K-Mart.

I worked during school holidays as a young teenager to be able to buy a Walkman like this. (And later on Sony discmans.)

The first time I heard bass was through a little Sony in-ear like this one.
I never dreamed one day I will enjoy my bass through a Final D8000.
