I currently have the Sennheiser HD 419, but they're starting to die on me. I want some headphones that are similar to them: good base, loose-ish fit (not squeezing my head), and not noise cancelling. I like being able to talk to other people while I have the headphones on. I paid around $55 for these, and I'd like to pay around the same amount for some others. Anyone got any recommendations?

ᴄʜᴇᴇsᴇ ɪᴛ!

When did you buy the headphones and how did you pay for them? It's likely you have a 3 year warranty on them if you paid with a credit card.

It sounds like you really like these headphones so I would recommend not changing.

I got them five years ago, so the warranty is definitely gone. I do like these headphones, but they do have some faults, particularly the wire being incredibly skinny, which I think is what caused the issue (I tripped over it a bunch and I think it got messed up). I paid about $50 for them, so something in that range would be good for me.

I order you to forgive yourself!

This is what I have: Sennheiser 280 PRO

Costs $99.95 though. I got them new for $94.99 CAD though which is ~$70 USD.

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically

Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
[2026-6-21. : 4:25 am]
Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings

Ultraviolet -- Yeah he's talked about a lot of that stuff in his casts before. It seems plausible. Especially knowing how Blizzard of yesteryear operated.

NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.

NudeRaider -- Contained nothing new for me. Didn't know all building's behavior, but very much all unit's. Also Terran balance whine - also nothing new :lol:

Oh_Man -- makes me wonder if SEN knows anything about the topic
