The vita charger is nice if you need to charge the golds while playing. Its nice and long as long as you have a wall outlet somewhere near where you sit

My vita charger is setup so that the cord runs over the back of my couch. Works great for long Vita play sessions or for charging the golds while in use to have the cable out of the way.

That really only works if you have a 2000 model though unless you change out the charging dongle for the 2 devices. Yet another reason why the 2000 is superior ;)

Amazon has the 20th Anniversary Gold headset up for preorder at $65. Definitely a price error since MSRP is $100. I think they release in September.

I doubt it's an error. Amazon listed the wireless PS3 headset that preceded the Gold (can't remember the model name) about $20 under MSRP and they shipped them. It's probably limited though.

edit: it was this one, the very generic-sounding "wireless stereo headset." http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0053OLY9O

Not quite as dumb as those.

Beats are at least double the price of golds if not more.

Yea I laugh at people that think their beats are the most amazing things in the world. You can get headphones that are 10x better for half the price. Oh, you like the style of them? Well you look like a dumbass walking around with big ass headphones in public.
 
I heard if you wear Beats Headphones than your in the cool kid club. It seems like everybody in CA has a pair and I'd never pay that much for headphones.

The stupidest thing I see all the time is when all the idiots buy hats and keep all the stickers on the hat bill. Look I bought a 100% legit hat and it's not a bootleg. GTFO

Looks like I have that Payday 2 game too, as well as Payday The Heist. So I suppose I could up for playing that when you guys get around to it. I'll try to not be weirded out by the masks.

No lie, I bought a USF hat and kept the NCAA sticker on the bill because frankly, I didnt even think to remove it. It was out of the way and didnt bother me at all. I didnt really even notice it. But then everyone would ask me why I left it and they thought I was making some statement probably like what you just said. I would just shrug and say I didnt care or notice it. Then I just left it since it seemed to bother people. So the last few people that asked I just said...

I'm still kinda amazed that a guy with a history of domestic abuse was ballsy enough to put out a line of headphones and call them "Beats By Dre." You'd think he'd go with a name that wouldn't sound like a reference to him beating the shit out of a woman.

Um, he is now a billionaire according to him at least and everyone is buying them so I guess beating women is okay? Although I didnt know about this history until you just mentioned it so not sure most others do either. Facts?

That's not that terrible. Its the people that think it looks cool to keep the new Era sticker and the sticker that says the size of the hat and shit on there because they think it looks cool. I strickly wear my hats backwards so maybe some people see that as pointless though. Although my hair is all long this year so I won't be wearing hats, as I just put my hair in a bun.

I doubt the people beats are directed at give a flying fuck if dre beat up some woman.

No, I have. They have tried to push them in Best Buy here many times. Just like Monster, Bose, Apple, and even Sony you are paying for the name brand and not the supposed technical superiority they like to claim.

Sony makes some really good headphones that are a much cheaper option than most of what's out there

He has a "Violence against women" section on his wikipedia page. It's not exactly a secret.

https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Dr._Dre#Violence_against_women

This goes into a lot more detail with quotes and such, though it's a bit opinionated so I'd just read the quoted material:

I was actually surprised how many people buy/wear Beats. Now that Apple owns them too so wonder if they will try to soften the hard edge or whatever the brand carries.

I was at the airport in Atlanta last month waiting at the gate and two teenage girls were there with Beats headphones plugged into their Macbooks watching some Lord of the Rings or whatever type movie. Certainly not the clientele you were referring to.

This guy that used to party with us would do that all the time. On some of his hats the stickers fell off and you could see spots where the bill was faded from the sun but the sticker area looked NEW. He'd always go buy a new hat if the stickers came off. Haha
 
pharmacrest said:
Yeah, the Golds! While I def like them better than the originals, I would never say they were worth a lot more money. Buying headphones for over anywhere near or over $200 is insane.
Click to expand...
Yea, I don't think I'd ever spend more than 60 or so Bucks on any kind of headphones. Maybe if I had top of the line stereo equipment to pair with them or something, but just for listening to music from an ipod, you're not going to get much different sound from your headphones.
 
I don't really love headphones in general. I don't like feeling isolated. That's why I really shouldn't get the Golds. I prefer having my current Vita/PS4 headset which I use in only one ear and with chat-audio-only. But I'd never listen to music on them. But you guys keep talking up the Golds and I find myself wanting a set anyway. Sigh.

I like expensive headphones and hats with stickers on them. 

Sticker hats because for whatever reason it seems to drive some people crazy that I never take them off. Kinda funny.

Expensive headphones 'cause the sony ones I have are comfortable over time, have good sound quality, and also 'cause i got 200-300$ headphones for free for being a bby employee while sony was trying to market the shit out of them. I think sony may have ended up paying me to wear them lol.

Yeah, this hat is a dark green camo color so when the sticker finally fell off it left some of the glue and was darker than the rest. Its hard to see and I only use the hat for when I go out to run quick errands on a weekend morning or when I go out to do yard work or something. Its like 5 years old and I wont throw it away until its disintegrated.

Besides driving people crazy what's the purpose of leaving the stickers on?

I bet your headphones blow beats out of the water. Those more expensive Sonys are some of the better ones you can get. And you didn't even pay for them! Well done. Rip those stickers off your hat though.
 
My favorite headphones are my Sennheiser PX-100s. They sound pretty great and they aren't as isolating since they're open-ear. Not much good in a noisy environment, though, and they leak sound so people around you can hear them. But they sound great and are relatively inexpensive.

Nothing really I suppose. I just like stickers in general tho and they're shiny most of the time so I just leave them on. I wouldn't be mad or anything if they came off, I just never intentionally take them off. Maybe so it looks newer or something? Never really think about them too much outside of when people go all crazy 'cause they're still on. I've always just taken off any obvious price tags and left those stickers on. Kinda like part of the hat to me I guess.

Yeah, the sonys are definitely better than the beats. My brother had a pair of the solos that I never liked the sound on. They're also super uncomfortable after like a half hour to an hour.
