Allow me to de-hype.

I do not appreciate the hype, as unknown as it may be. Could you explain to me what makes these headphones so great that you can recommend them? If not, the image should be enough of an indication.

Oh, poor ageing music_4321, the more he posts, the lower his "Karma" gets.

One thing that is actually not bad about HF is that at least you know who gives you a 'thumbs up' when you post something—for a time there was a 'thumbs down' option, too, and you could also see who gave you that, but just like on eBay, it proved to be a bit of a curse, ie people who didn't like you would inevitably give you a firm thumbs down (on eBay that'd mean sellers giving you negative feedback in retaliation if you also left them not so flattering comments / positive feedback).

Here on CS, it sometimes seems pretty arbitrary, like our good ol' Anax ("Karma: +65535/-65535", which remains unchanged), but that is obviously more of an inside joke, ie not the norm.

So, it seems our avian friend, aka Our Most Popular music_4321 Dude, isn't pleasing those allowed to vote. I'd like to think I've got a fairly thick (bird) skin, but our visitors might interpret said "Karma" differently.

So, a kind request to our very esteemed mods: Either make my "Karma" veeeery negative, say "+0/-10,000", or leave it completely blank.

In my not so humble opinion, the Tenores have a bit more than "a very pleasing and entertaining sound signature", hence starting this (now) rather peculiar thread.

As for the Karma bit, I've said my piece — bottom line: it means nothing, yet it does mean something...to some.

I've been jealously protecting my karma since day one.
