New sounds for me in the new year!

Hope the sub fits ok under my desk :s
 
I treated myself to the top of the range stainless steel Panasonic breadmaker with raisin and nut dispenser.

Got my first loaf in now. As silly as it may sound, I really hope it lets off that lovely smell when baking the bread.

This one :)
Does a great job and also comes with the jug and internals to become a juicer. I need to do juicer/smoothie shopping at the weekend with a basketful of ingredients to work with. This is in an effort to move away from soda drinks and have only smoothies when thirsty and because there's a loud machine involved :cool:

So would these be a better option than something like the DT770 for gaming and music?

I'm so confused now.

Weren't the 770s around the £120 mark? If you don't mind spending £40 odd more then certainly yes.

Flat/monitoring headphones are rarely particularly 'enjoyable' :p

Depends on the amp powering them :p My NAD amp is warm sounding and wide so reference headphones have a bit more life. The X1s sound superb especially when watching movies or gaming (just had a 2 hour session).

Good choice, I've been really impressed by Philips higher end audio stuff since I worked in Richer Sounds years ago. They did a set (2.0/amp/CD) for £400 that destroyed Denons that cost twice as much.

Even picked up a pair of their cheaper 'phones, Shibuyas for £15 to use on the PS4 when I get one,

I never even knew they made proper headphones until 245 hours ago :p

I see they even come with "Self-adjustable hammock", which seems like a good complementary pairing :D

Everyone needs self adjusting hammocks from time to time!

The amount you'd get by selling those unused ones you could probably buy another 2 at the current prices. Get in quick before Amazon raises the price to closer RRP :p

I assumed that's what you meant when you said you want headphones but didn't need them.
 
What's the difference between closed and open back headphones?

I'm looking at getting a pair of Sony MDR-V55 - number of good reviews and they look comfortable.

But the Sennheiser HD419 - look pretty good too. I had a pair of HD202s which I was happy with before I broke them. Looking for a bit of an upgrade now.

edit: apologies as this isn't probably the correct place for me to ask this - however while the topic is on headphones, I'll take my opportunity to ask :p

Edit: Sorry :(
Needed a tv for blu-rays and a bit of light pc gaming, seems like it'll do the job.

Edit: And sorry again :(
Creative Gigaworks T20 Series II for my pc.

And a few Blu rays
Edit: And again and again and again :(
All presents for me, from me :D;)
