How Do You Listen to Music?

When you are listening to music typically what do you use? Laptop speakers, stereo speakers, car, headphones or other?

50% - laptop (lame i know) 25% - car 20% - headphones 5% stereo speakers (logitech 5.1 surround sound).

I need to buy a longer cord I think so I can listen to music using the right speakers more often. Not sure if my dog will appreciate that though, lol.

Re: How Do You Listen to Music?

i used to use headphones a lot in atlanta in my old apartment so i didn't piss off the neighbors. i don't need headphones too much at home anymore... when i moved to fort worth, i bought a house so i can bump music into the wee hours of the morning if i so rightfully choose! and no complaints from my neighbors thus far...

headphones at work, got a nice infinity sound system in my car and a great kenwood surround/theater sound system at home that i run my laptop into.

Speakers Headphones Earphones

Can never listen to music out of laptop speakers.

On an aside, I've been without music since Monday when I moved out of my place. Silence is overrated.

Re: How Do You Listen to Music?

8 hours a day of my sweet in-ears at work and the rest on pretty crud speakers or sometimes headphones at home.

Don't listen much on the move any more, just when I'm out exercising.

Get some real nice sound isolating ones, they are amazing. I have my sound on the lowest volume and it is still crystal clear and nearly all the ambient noise is gone. Super protected hearing for the wins.

Re: How Do You Listen to Music?

simply listening. abstraction. absorbing sounds.

with various devices and in all kinds of ways; without degrading the formlessness of music, i refrain from belittinging it like everyone and their mom does, nowadays.

ie. "wickedness!" awwwwwwwwwwww yeaahhh mate soooooo fucking filthy" "nasty chooonn" pure darkness" epic!" "massive`!11!11!" and so forth

OMG OMG OMG

:Gay:

Re: How Do You Listen to Music?

I also quite enjoy commuting or walking because it gives me uninterrupted time for music.

I listen to a lot off my laptop ... until it gets placed onto my i-pod any played through my hifi.

So I will probably go for some B & W : MM-1's.

Re: How Do You Listen to Music?

Re: How Do You Listen to Music?

[QUOTE=feather;973245]I also quite enjoy commuting or walking because it gives me uninterrupted time for music.[/QUOTE] I actually miss this a lot. I used to ride the subway and buses constantly before I had to get a car, and I loved the opportunity to listen to music without any interruptions to and from my work. Listening to it in the car isn't quite the same (also because I don't have a jack to plug my iPod into on my car - it's a wee bit old).

Re: How Do You Listen to Music?

I miss blasting out the beats in my car for long drives. Going to be driving a good few hours at the weekend (for the first time in years), but not sure my company would appreciate my choice for the whole way :lol:
