Headphones & Audio Devices

The kid, which works for recycling on the weekends, found a pair of Bose bookshelf studio monitors. Pretty nice shape as well. It pains me to see shit like this tossed. ITs like WTF? So anyway he bought himself a Fosi BT30 for like $90 and hooked them up to the computer. Then like a week later he found himself a 10 powered Sony sub. Full sound system for $90.

Anyone have a good headphone recommendation for the gym? Seems like a decent chance at a sale item.

I still have not pulled the trigger on speakers for my new setup. Any thoughts on these? I am looking for Black Speakers with White Trim and/or White Highlights if that makes sense. And these might be closer to silver than white.

I own the hs8s and I love them, I think listening through these definitely enabled me to make tighter mixes. I also have the sub though and have never used them without that.

My office is pretty small ~8'x11' what size would you recommend with a sub?

After going back and forth on a couple different speaker choices I finally pulled the trigger the YU6s

good purchase.
you might find that the YU6 are a bit too much for your 8x11 room.

my office is 10x15'. and the YU4 speakers + 8" sub rarely go over quarter volume before they become too loud to enjoy.

Yeah, it was only a $70 difference and the decision was made based more on aesthetics. My desk top is 8' x 3' I feared the YU4s would look tiny and out of place.

I got the YU6s for my desk also. I just use them on low because they can thump if you really want.
