Lol! I hadn't seen it, indeed!
I understand more what you mean when you're talkin' 'bout bad stories with them! Moreover, what you say is true, the quality isn't always proportional to the time!
In fact, I even wonder what headphones is she using while recording, at that time. About me, what's feeding my desire is... Monster Beats By Dre!!

I already tested it, it's the coolest thing I ever touched. I'm adamant!

As I've seen so much people (I'm talking about my surrounding, but also artist such as Lady Gaga or Justin Bieber) wearing it, and I think she certainly has these headset! Even I think it's not THE best in the market, she must have got those kind of things to record, by now, mustn't she? >.<

Technically yes, and no. Just because a pair of headphones come out later than a certain one it doesn't mean it's better. There are ones made strictly for the looks of them, thus the price may skyrocket above the previous ones. But you need to buy a certain brand. Bose are very good, but very expensive. The best around if not beat by the Beats ones. Skullcandy's can come out within pair right now for a super high price, outfit won't mean it's better quality. Sure the image is great, but I've had a bad history with them.

Oh, I think since the time she bought these Headphones, she changed them ever since! However, every new things that are releasing are more efficient, more and more! So, if she used to have it, now, I guess there are more powerful headphones now, right? xD

Beats audio headphones. Period.

there is no discrimination on budget buds... i think even hikaru herself would have some much normal pair of buds that she lugs around with her ipod whenever she goes...

i don't think she wants someone attempting to pull the USD1k phones of her head when she is walking around enjoying her tunes...

well... anything to keep the forum alive... else, it will only be the twitter translation thread that has some activity when she twits something..

Wow, all these headphones are ridiculously expensive. I have a ?12 pair and another headset that cost me ?4...

I love them both though!

I agree. LOL

think it was something like jerry was mixing for van halen when he first started to mold custom ear pieces for their concert uses...

then some other bands convinced him to go into it full time... which he did after separating with his wife and went into business with her as partners (weird)..

he helped shure developed some IEMs and then later worked with another company can't recall the name which screwed him over for taking over the copyrights of his design...

jerry concentrated on creating nice buds while he left the business to his associates and ex-wife before logitech acquired it...

he then moved on to JH audio... but that was when the whole IEM and custom shell thing caught on to most audio equipment producers...

Infact Jerry was the father of UE long before its bought by logitech. And i think he's the inventor of customs monitors and such.
Maybe because hikki used a pair of older models of UE custom? It was mentioned by her but i forgot which modell. its unfortunate that i can't find her name in logitech's website though..
