YIPPEE!!
I have found a pair of affordable phenomenal headphones! Well, provided that you consider thirty bucks affordable. :)
Seriously, if you need a pair of over-the-ear 'phones and you HATE tinny ones as much as I do, then google "Koss Portapro". I picked mine up at Amazon, where they are $32.65 at the time of this posting (no tax, free shipping). Now, they aren't as comfy as my Sennheiser 201s (which are only $19.99), but the sound is better and I don't have to look like Princess Leia when I wear them.
These are the first pair of headphones that show up my mp3 player for the audio pretender that it is. Not that I'm dissing my player, mind you. I'm only saying that any low-bitrate song is gonna sound very flat. When I have it hooked up to my computer, I can actually hear interference that emits from some web pages!
OK, enough headphone talk. It's boring. Let's talk about the Pens.
8-1, baybee!! We've hit a small pothole this week, though, with the month-long absence of Sergei Gonchar. But these little adversities are sometimes just what we need to take a giant step forward. We'll see how the boys respond on Friday.
