I recently purchased a new pair of headphones. At $80.00 they were a significant step up from my $5.00 pair of headphones. Most importantly I noticed that there was no longer a weird harmonic in the middle of the songs. The music was beautiful again.

A strange side-effect of these headphones is that my musical taste is alot wider. I happened to visit a friend's myspace page that featured some hip-hop and rather than flee the scene the moment I heard the first gangsterly beat, I stuck around to listen. I was actually ENJOYING it. I guess the wider dynamic range of the headphones added greater variety to my music preferences.

So, if you're an arrogant music snob perhaps you need to invest in a new pair of headphones. It might just make you a little more agreeable.
