A Day In The Life Of The Oblivious Ape

More on that 'audio addiction'.
I'm a man of sound.

My whole frickin' life revolves around sound.

And to satisfy my need for quality audio pleasure, I continue my search for the ideal audiophone.



So far, I haven't found it.

But I have found something that will stave off that hunger...for maybe just a few months.

I present to you the SonicGear Ear Pump.



Okay, so I'm not the best product photographer.

I know the image is kind of an anti-climax to its name, but don't be fooled. The bass these babies churn out is something to be reckoned with. I probably didn't need to turn the volume up on my PSP all the way, like I usually do; the sound is loud enough for me even at a lower setting, and for sound quality like the PSP, that's something.


This was the earphone case which came together with the 'phones. Pretty solid; I could probably use this for my X-Mini speakers too, instead of the flimsy pouch it came packed with.


Now, knowing the Teknofreak - the self-proclaimed headphone fetishist, what would have possessed him to blaspheme to earphones?

Well, my current headphones not being compatible to the PSP sound system is one of the reasons. (Screw you, Sony)

The primary reason: I'm saving the money I have so that one day, I might be able to get me one of these off the Net:

Say hello to Skullcandy - my dream headphone brand. That model you see up there: that's the Skullcandy G.I. Rasta from their G.I. range of headphones. Just one look at this baby and my addiction broke into little fits of ecstacy. Imma get me one of those someday...although my birthday IS coming...

....*drools*

Skullcandy doesn't just make headphones; they do everything from speaker bags to MP3 watches. Awesome stuff, I must say.

But the thing is, they only retail in the US and Europe...which pretty much sucks. The only way you can get (that I know of) is probably through eBay...and most dealers want payment through PayPal, another thing that sucks. Anyone got a credit card?

You guys can check out their stuff here: Skullcandy!!!
