July 18, 201214 yr comment_526420 "Stop pretending to be a rap star." Leather & metal closed dynamics. Reasonably attractive looking. They have a kickstarter. Higher amounts get you an actual pair of cans. I know one guy in LA who has a set and claims to love them, but he's much more of a gamer than an audio snob. Report
July 18, 201214 yr comment_526426 Very retro looking and IMO they look nice in a different kind of way. Report
July 18, 201214 yr comment_526428 They look swell. The measurements they posted, less so. I'm not sure what to make of "tuned for rock, country, and alternative" either. Report
July 18, 201214 yr comment_526431 Do you generally use full sized closed cans outdoors? They're not selling them for jogging. Report
July 18, 201214 yr comment_526432 I don't, but isn't the idea to get the young crowd using headphones without rapper bling? In aesthetics alone I don't see them wanting it. Maybe I'm wrong and california doesn't give a fuck to aesthetics. Report

July 18, 201214 yr comment_526437 Let me ask Lindsey Lohan what cans she uses. I will get back to you............ Report
July 18, 201214 yr comment_526438 Maybe I'm missing something. Rapper bling headphones aren't generally "Oh, yah, those are definitely outside headphones" either. And it's not supposed to appeal to the people looking for those, it's an alternative. I imagine it's not the basketball, jogging, or mountain biking users they're trying to capture either. Report
July 18, 201214 yr Author comment_526440 The cord isn't exactly right, and I'd have to hear how well they isolated, but I'd say the Calis might work for DJing. Report
July 18, 201214 yr comment_526441 I think they're ugly and I also think Kickstarter is a pain in the ass. Other than that, great stuff! Report
July 18, 201214 yr comment_526442 I like kickstarter a lot. And no one makes you fund stuff there, it's just a way to help people make shit you want to buy. Report
July 19, 201214 yr comment_526461 The California Headphones are brought to you by the same folks that produce the Fanny Wang brand. I've got both the Siverado and Loredo. Measurements will go up in next months update, but they're no big deal. Not bad, but not good either ... prolly not worth any lusty thoughts. Report
