    My girlfriend picked these up for me and I must say for some Skullcandy's I am impressed. She got a special discount on them through some website and ended up only paying about $60 bucks instead of the $110 MSRP.

    Sound just good to me as say Beats that are 3x as much.

    Especially for the price. I've never given them a true test with the wide variety of music I listen to, because I refuse to pay that much for headphones, unless I was a DJ or some shit.

    I'm not sure if the bass is the biggest surprise on these headphones, or the comfort. I can wear them all day.

    Does anyone here have their CCNA or better? Going to school for Cisco Networking Technology, thinking about doing some security classes too seeing how everyone is getting hacked nowadays. But do not know what security cert to get that will mix well with my CCNA and Networking degree

    When I was taking CCNA classes they were just putting together wireless an security classes at MCC. I would just focus on your CCNA first and getting into a data center or NOC. If you really like networking after that take the CCNP. Anything after the CCNP is no joke, I heard about the testing process when I was in school.
    CISSP, that is a goal for sure but you will need 6 years under your belt.

    Beats are the worst. Over rated IMO. I like my sol. My only complaint is they dont get loud enough, but thats prolly for the best.

    These Skullcandy's are plenty loud. But I agree, my hearing has gone to shit, and I wish on a scale of 1-10 on loudness that there was a 15.

    Haha. Once I get my audio in my truck I'll be the same way. I've been bassless for a while now.

    Working on attempting my CCIE R&S Lab.
    After my R&S I am working on getting my CCIE in Collaboration/Voice.

    Going through a security course and getting into the security field requires much more than a few classes. You really have to be into security to be proficient. But then again such is anything.

    Infosec and awareness is your best security measure as well as limiting your exposure to the packet world.

    IMHO, the "networking" field is endless and just keeps getting bigger and crazier. Best career out there and keeps getting more worth it. I have invested heavily of personal expenditures and have gotten definitely gotten my investment back and then some.

    I have a set I was given I wouldn't go as far as saying trash. They have sound pretty good. Are there better ones for the price? Sure. I wear ny beats everyday at work and old keep them at half and they still block the data center noise and are clear sounding

    I can't do systems anymore. Too much money and begs for people to break in. As much as I want one, I just enjoy the simpler things in life. Plus that is money I can put towards lift, lights, etc...

    Do some low profile subs behind the seats or something. A lil bass never hurt. You should be able to keep factory deck if you want to also. I enjoy bass though.

    I don't listen to that crap... Much. That's the Nicki Minaj new song right? I heard it once and changed it. Haha.
