I wholeheartedly agree with that. The KSC-35 are the best headphones (of any style) under $50 IMO. The newer KSC-50 use the same driver, but a more "modern" enclosure (silver and round) -- they have a bit less bass (since they don't fit as tightly), are heavier, and they aren't as good for "active" wearing (i.e., they fall off). But on the other hand, they can be found for $15 at Circuit City. ----------------------------------------------------------------- To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
