oh dear

a coworker of mine is an head-fi or some crap like that. he likes headphones. and since he has money, has has some really nice ones. headphones that require separate headphone amps to work.

well, he convinced me to get a nicer pair of headphones myself. so i picked up a set of akg k81dj's, and though they're uncomfortable, on account of the earpieces are too small and too tight, i've been impressed with them these past few months.

whelp, right now i'm being blown away. pink floyd's "the wall" came on my mp3 player, and though it's compressed, and though i've listened to the album a million times, i'm hearing incredible new things on each and every track.

the operator calling from the US and reaching the dude sleeping with pink's wife is now crystal clear.

new instruments are springing up all over the place.

comfortably numb is even more amazing than ever before.

and best of all, it's not hardly even distracting me from work.

i really hope i dont end up blowing wads of cash on more comfy headphones, but as of now, i'm thoroughly convinced of how *big* of a difference a set of quality phones makes.
