Pheromones are controversial, actually modern scientific community tend to go in the "humans no longer use pheromone" category. Also physical attractiveness or the way you intake somebody through your senses is not the only way to have sexual attraction, culture have shown us that Social Status(and thus the understanding of behaviors) plays a big role too. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 126.96.36.199 (talk) 15:32, 13 March 2012 (UTC)
Regarding the assertion "Although in many species it serves no immediate reproductive goal" - I'll suggest that it does not serve any reproductive "goal" in most species. For example, oysters do not set "goals", although they do have sex. My guess is that oysters and other animals have sex because they enjoy doing so. Sexual activity is a step in sexual reproduction, but I think it's safe to say that oysters, birds, cats etc. (and for that matter, a substantial number of humans) do not know this, much less set it as a "goal." -- Gyrofrog (talk) 20:15, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
Serious NPOV issue: sexual attraction in humans is not distinct from other forms of attraction[edit]
Is Wikipedia seriously attempting to say that sexual attraction is an attribute *only* of humans? Not even of primates or other mammals but only humans? This article needs to be named human sexual attraction and even more correctly modern human sexual attraction. A more correct factoring of articles would be:
- sexual attraction covering the subject the way, say National Geographic Wild Sex would, each species being treated as interesting in its own right - part of biology not specific to humans
- primate sexual attraction covering what is known about monkeys, Great Apes especially bonobos (nearest human relative) and any theories of early human sexuality that predate our involvement in tame civilized modern societies - part of primatology not specific to humans
- modern human sexual attraction acknowledging that we know absolutely nothing about pre-modern or pre-state-society humans because we didn't test them before we wiped them out, and have inexorably altered sexual attraction in all human societies we have encountered - evidence suggests that we'd have to make this part of sociology as well as sexuality because we can't separate social from other influences given we are the products of many generations of domestication.
Also there is human sexual behavior and physical attractiveness (another bad name as "physical" implies even less human specificity than "sexual" and could bloody well mean gravity) which need a total refactoring in this process. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.108.40.206 (talk) 23:15, 27 November 2010 (UTC)
{{editsemiprotected}} Remove {{redirect|Sexy}} at the beginning of the article, as sexy is now a disambiguation page. 188.8.131.52 (talk) 03:07, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
- Done —EqualRights (talk) 03:16, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
- Should also mention sexy son hypothesis and rewilding (anarchism) as the latter is a movement in which primitive skills are elevated in social desirability.
Definition issue[edit]
Quote: For example, a gay or lesbian would typically find a person of the same-sex to be more attractive then one of the other gender. A bisexual person would typically find both sexes to be equally attractive.
A bisexual person does not necessarily find both sexes equally attractive. Bisexuals are sexually attracted to both sexes, but may have a greater preference towards one sex than the other. The preferences may also fluctuate in intensity. Homosexuality and heterosexuality in a clinical senh m jh b h jghd cj bgdvbc bse is an exclusive attraction to one sex (either your own or of the opposite sex). 22.214.171.124 (talk) 12:22, 10 November 2009 (UTC)
- Agreed this is nonsense, Kinsey had at least a scale of 1 to 6, and that should probably be referenced in this context.
Pending changes[edit]
This article is one of a small number (about 100) selected for the first week of the trial of the Wikipedia:Pending Changes system on the English language Wikipedia. All the articles listed at Wikipedia:Pending changes/Queue are being considered for level 1 pending changes protection.
The following request appears on that page:
|Many of the articles were selected semi-automatically from a list of indefinitely semi-protected articles.
Please confirm that the protection level appears to be still warranted, and consider unprotecting instead, before applying pending changes protection to the article.
However with only a few hours to go, comments have only been made on two of the pages.
Please update the Queue page as appropriate.
Note that I am not involved in this project any more than any other editor, just posting these notes since it is quite a big change, potentially.
Regards, Rich Farmbrough, 20:29, 15 June 2010 (UTC).
The text and the photos in the introduction are ridiculous... I would change change them replacing them in one. --Catalaalatac (talk) 03:41, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

Scents have an important role in sexual behaviour of primates whith vertebrates. The scent of either male of females is used for recognizing the opposite sex and it can also attract opposite sex which inceases potential mating. Usually females are more attracted towards male scents which is an important interaction between the main and accessory olfactory systems.

Not done: please be more specific about what needs to be changed. I am unable to discern whereabouts to insert the above text.--Hazel77 talk 17:55, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
Edit request April 13, 2012[edit]
If you could add this section below 'Enhancement' I feel the page could be expanded a bit to include some research on sexuality/sexual orientation differences in sexual attraction. If you feel there is somewhere better this belongs, feel free to inform me.
Sex and Sexuality Differences in Sexual Attraction[edit]
Men have been found to have a greater interest in uncommitted sex compared to women [1] as well as a greater interest in visual sexual stimuli [2]. Additional trends have been found with a greater sensitivity to partner status in women choosing a sexual partner and men placing a greater emphasis on physical attractiveness in a potential mate, as well as a significantly greater tendency toward sexual jealousy in men and emotional jealousy in women. [3]
Bailey, Gaulin, Agyei, and Gladue (1994) analyzed whether these results would vary according to sexual orientation. In general, they found biological sex played a bigger role in the psychology of sexual attraction than orientation. However, there were some differences between homosexual and heterosexual women and men on these factors. While gay men and straight men showed similar psychological interest in casual sex on markers of sociosexuality, gay men showed a larger number of partners in behaviour expressing this interest (proposed to be due to a difference in opportunity). Self-identified lesbian women showed a significantly greater interest in visual sexual stimuli than heterosexual women and judged partner status to be less important in romantic partnerships. Heterosexual men also had a significantly greater preference for younger partners than homosexual men.[4]

Request Fulfilled[edit]
Page no longer protected, included section within body of the page. DrLight12 (talk) 03:41, 11 May 2012 (UTC)
Describing sexual attraction[edit]
I think this page could potentially be improved with a description of what sexual attraction feels like, or at least more description of the physiological symptoms associated with sexual attraction. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Galingy (talk • contribs) 06:00, 27 July 2012 (UTC)
Sexy girls redirects here, but not sexy boys. Seems to discriminate against blokes 22.214.171.124 (talk) 08:40, 15 October 2013 (UTC)
Physical attraction without sexual arousal[edit]
Let's say a male finds other males physically attractive, to the point where he may be more inclined to check out men than women, but is not sexually aroused by men, and he only has sex with women. Do you think physical and sexual attraction could easily be confused by some people (particularly those who don't experience [significant] physical attraction for those they aren't sexually attracted to), and that explicitly differentiating the two might be worth a few sentences in this article?--Xagg (talk) 16:29, 14 February 2015 (UTC)
- I don't see why that needs to be in this article. We have the Physical attractiveness and Sexual attraction articles because these topics are distinct, though they do significantly overlap. That stated, if what you propose is WP:Reliably sourced, it can be added to this article and/or to the Physical attractiveness article. It is not WP:Lead material, however. And, per MOS:Paragraphs, a few sentences generally do not warrant a heading. Flyer22 (talk) 16:37, 14 February 2015 (UTC)

It's been a big year for "Twilight" starlet Ashley Greene.
First the pretty young, who wanted more green to reprise her role as Alice Cullen in the "Breaking Dawn" films, scores a delicious pay rise from Summit, and in recent days she's been touted (but so have a dozen or so other beauties, I suppose) for the female lead in Paramount's "Transformers 3″.
Now, according to Heat Vision, Greene is up for one of the leads in Wes Craven's "Scream 4″.
If the actress agrees to whatever fee the Weinstein's are willing to pay her, she'd play Sidney Prescott's cousin Jill, essentially the heroine of the movie.
Greene will have to decide whether she wants to do the film based on the character breakdown alone, as the studio isn't sending out the script to anyone – and that includes the film's prospective stars.
But Greene's not the only young thing being courted for the Kevin Williamson-penned sequel – former "Heroes" star Hayden Panettiere has been asked to play Jill's friend, a nerdy film geek, Kieran Culkin ("Igby Goes Down") has been asked to play a potential love interest for Jill, and Lake Bell, seen recently in the Streep/Baldwin/Martin comedy "It's Complicated", has been offered the role of a Cop, who went to school with Sidney.
Whilst the storyline, as I said, is under wraps I think we can all assume who "gets it" in the pre-credits sequence.
David Arquette and Courtney Cox will reprise their roles as Gale and Dewey, respectively, with Neve Campbell 'arm-twisted' into reprising her role as the original trilogy's heroine, Sidney.
Filming on the pic, believed to be the first in a new "Scream" trilogy, begins in Michigan in July.

On rare occasions, you'll find something interesting in the mainstream media. Here is an article about Sheryl Attkisson, CBS's former top investigative journalist. In April 2011, she wrote a piece titled
"Vaccines and Autism: A New Scientific Review"
However, I love a good tale of corruption. Sheryl also uncovered a few interesting bits of info I would like to share with you. This adds to my ever-expanding list of reasons why I do not trust the entire system!
1.Ben Rhodes, David Rhodes, brothers.
Ben's brother, David, is president of CBS News. Attkisson was working for David. She was investigating all the changes (12) in the Benghazi talking points. She was shut down.
2. CBS executive chairman has stake in vaccines.
Sumner Redstone, the executive chairman of CBS, Attkisson's employer, has a very significant stake in vaccines. His Foundation, on its site, states: "The Sumner M. Redstone Foundation's contribution to the Global Poverty Project raising $118 million in pledges for vaccines…"
Redstone's Foundation has also donated $1 million to a charity called Autism Speaks, which supports genetic testing for the diagnosis of Autism. You can be sure this charity has zero interest in reviving the vaccine-Autism debate and exposing the fact that there is most definitely a connection.
There you go. Here is the full link with more examples. The mainstream media is NOT your friend. It is not a reliable source of unbiased information.
"Medical propaganda ops are, in the long run, the most dangerous. They appear to be neutral. They wave no political banners. They claim to be science. For these reasons, they can accomplish the goals of overt fascism without arousing suspicion." — Jon Rappoport
Good research. Thank you.
Editted to add that her father is an orthopedic surgeon and her brother is an ER doctor; she is from a family of doctors. She is married and has a daughter.
"The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie, deliberate, contrived and dishonest, but the myth, persistent, persuasive and unrealistic."
Jon's exclusive interview with Sharyl Attkisson
Sharly Attkisson on the CDC and the Swine flu:
Good research. Thank you.
Editted to add that her father is an orthopedic surgeon and her brother is an ER doctor; she is from a family of doctors. She is married and has a daughter.
She has issues with her Wikipedia page (from the above interview with Jon Rappoport):
I know you've had problems with your Wikipedia page. What happened there?
Long story short: there is a concreted effort by special interests who exploit Wikipedia editing privileges to control my biographical page to disparage my reporting on certain topics and skew the information. Judging from the editing, the interest(s) involved relates to the pharmaceutical/vaccine industry. I am far from alone. There is an entire Wikipedia subculture that exists to control pages and topics, and another one that watchdogs all that's gone wrong with Wikipedia (Wikipediocracy). It's a fascinating subject.
........because vaccines support the media!
More from Jon Rappoport on his interview with Sharyl Attikisson on the CDC swine flu lies.
Do you want the staggering capper on this foul tale? Roughly three weeks after Attkisson's Swine Flu revelations appeared in print, the CDC, obviously in great distress over the exposure, decided to double down. The best lie to tell would be a huge lie.
Here, from a November 12, 2009, WebMD article is the CDC's response: "Shockingly, 14 million to 34 million U.S. residents — the CDC's best guess is 22 million — came down with H1N1 swine flu by Oct. 17 [2009]." ("22 million cases of Swine Flu in US," by Daniel J. DeNoon)
22 million cases of Swine Flu in America. Roughly 1 out every 15 Americans came down with Swine Flu. What??
The CDC, which had stopped counting cases, because there were so few, because the vast majority of samples from suspected patients came back negative, with no sign of any kind of flu, suddenly says: 22 million American cases.
Can you imagine what would have happened had Attkisson's story been trumpeted on the CBS Evening News? The CDC would have come back and said: new discovery: all Americans have Swine Flu from birth. This year of 2009, it was activated by comets passing the sun. And solar flares. And Martians coming here on vacation to watch the

Interesting article about the effects of electronic trading on the NYSE.
"Behind the marble facade of its neoclassical fortress on Wall Street, the New York Stock Exchange has been the hub of financial activity in Lower Manhattan for more than a century.
But the buzz emanating from its famous trading floor is dying down as computerized trading has rapidly reduced the need for face-to-face transactions. In the next several weeks, the exchange plans to shut two trading rooms that were added decades ago, when its status as the place to buy and sell stocks was unchallenged.
When the latest retreat is complete, the exchange floor will be half the size it was at its peak. The "crowd" — the brokers and clerks on the floor — has dwindled to about 1,700 from a high of more than 3,000. Before the exchange became a public company in 2005, its members controlled 1,366 seats, or licenses to trade. Now, about 800 brokers pay the annual $50,000 fee for a license."

Yesterday, we discussed the potential impact of the ongoing weakening of the US dollar.
Today, we look at a few
printing press Money Supply issues. Our focus: The spread between the Fed liquidity action (a/k/a Repos) and the M2 money supply measures.
This is simply a measure of how much cash the Fed is injecting into the system.
The following Bloomberg chart shows the spread between the two of these monetary measures. It is quite instructive:
Speaking of surges: As you can clearly see above (bottom left chart), the amount of MZM (repos) versus M2 during 2007 is enormous.
This means that the Fed is "inflating" at a rate faster today than it did right after 9/11, or during the deflationary scare of 2003.
As we asked Wednesday night, "What did the Fed Chair and the FOMC see that spooked them into a half point (over) reaction?" I am not sure what is was (and we've discussed many of the potential issues over the past 2 years), but the Fed is obviously scared witless.
The manifestations of this free printing press are many: Any commodity priced in plentiful dollars will cost more. Crude is now $82; and Inflation Fears Send Gold to 27-Year High.
Why? One way to think about it is supply and demand. Print ALOT more dollars and each one is worth a little less.
Or, consider it this way: Extracting Oil or Gold from the earth ain't easy: We have to explore for Oil, determine where it is, how deep, what quality, etc. Then we have to use lots of heavy machinery to extract it, ship it to where it gets processed, refined, used in chemical manufacturing. Some of it gets refined into gasoline, and it is then transported to a network of gasoline stations, and it gets pumped into your car — all for less per gallon than diet Coke or peach Snapple!
For gold, the process is not all that dissimilar.
Just crank up the printing press: Its cheap and easy. But why should us gold and oil producers exchange our hard won commodities (its hard work) for pieces of paper you people are simply cranking out for free? Either give us something of real value — or instead, we will insist on more of your crappy ittle pieces of green paper.
Thus, the inflationary repercussions of a "free money" policy. In fact, every commodity that is priced in dollars can potentially see much higher prices: Gold, Oil, Wheat, Soybeans, Copper, Timber, Corn, etc.
Its easy to understand why inflation has been called The Cruelest Tax.
BTW, for those of you without a pricey Bloomberg terminal on their desks, a good source for (free) data of this kind is the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis' publication, Monetary Trends. There are always a solid collection of charts showing money supply, economic conditions, etc. Not to get too wonky on you, but this is simply pornography for econ geeks.
There are a few charts after the jump worth reviewing. For the less visual of you, they show that Money Supply continues to grow at a rapid pace, that bank borrowings are increasing.

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
17 Aug 2011 17:42 GMT | Africa
Somali government troops and African Union peacekeepers have advanced on rebels in northern Mogadishu, prompting one hospital caught in the crossfire to be evacuated.
Doctors and patients fled an SOS hospital on Tuesday after stray bullets from a fire fight between members of the armed group al-Shabab and Somali authorities broke out.
Ahmed Ibrahim, Somalia director for the SOS Children charity, told Reuters news agency: "We have been getting stray bullets in the hospital. We evacuated children ... Patients started running away and some of the staff fled from the hospital."
A nurse at the SOS hospital described the chaotic scene.
"Today, anti-aircraft gun shots deafened us - then a stray bullet hit the veil of a patient's relative," said nurse Dahir Abdulle. "I took cover inside the dispensary. After [some] minutes, I came out but could not see a single patient."
"Relatives rushed patients who still had IV drips attached to them," he added.
Al-Shabab claimed to have withdrawn from Mogadishu weeks ago, but pockets of the group remained.
Instability in Somalia's capital has complicated the work of relief organisations aiming to provide food, shelter and safety to tens of thousands of famine-stricken refugees.
Cholera outbreak
Meanwhile, the United Nations has warned that a cholera outbreak linked to dirty water threatens Somali children already weak and on the brink of starvation.
At Banadir hospital in Mogadishu, medical staff are struggling to cope with the influx of patients, the Associated Press reported.
Dr Abdalla Abukar said the cholera outbreak began last month, and the hospital admits between 50 and 80 people with the disease per day.
One hospital in Mogadishu has had 181 patients die from the disease since January. Half of those were children younger than two-years old.
Calls for more aidIn addition to Somalia's ongoing civil war, the country has been hit by its worst drought in 60 years. More than 3.2mn people – half the population – are in need of food aid.
Getting aid to the country has been difficult because al-Shabab fighters control much of the country's most desperate areas.
"Despite increased attention in recent weeks, current humanitarian response remains inadequate, due in part to ongoing access restrictions and difficulties in scaling up emergency assistance programmes, as well as funding gaps," according to the UN's Food Security and Nutrition Analysis Unit.
Those funding gaps have been the subject of scrutiny and criticism. Some governments have called on their counterparts to increase aid contributions.
On Wednesday, Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan told the Organisation of the Islamic Conference (OIC) that the famine in Somalia was "a litmus test" not only for Muslims but for the whole of humanity.
"If you ride in a luxury car, you should be generous enough to help people who are struggling with hunger," he said.
"I hope the efforts [of the OIC] will mobilise the sleeping consciences. We hope the Western world, which likes to boast about its per capita income, shows its support for Somalia."

Re: Opposition to liveaboards
I dont see it the same way you do. I dont beleive its a misconception at all.
While yes our overall fees to members of the club help pay the property taxes, they dont use the services. Trash collection, snow removal and municipal services like fire and police would be minimal ay MYC from October through March if there were no lived aboards in our club. We would not need postal delivery or sewerage either. We would need bathrooms heated 12 months per year, The school bus would not have to stop at the club if there were no liveaboards. It would not be correct to compare it to a rental property.
Maybe the way I have phrased it is not correct. I beleive in user fees. The liveaboards use the club, the services, the facilities and the municpal facilities more than most club members who are only present 2/3 days per week for 7 months of the year. Because of this their fair share of the burden of running the club is greater thus the fee. When MYC dsecided to permit liveaboards, we knew we would incurr greater costs. The liveaboards consume more of the clubs resources as well as the communities as opposed to when there were no liveaboards.
In no way do I not want liveaboards at our club...there is one right next to me. I am all for it in a limited basis, and we limit it to 10 % of our 144 slips available. They do keep an eye on my boat as it is left in the water all year most of the winters. This being said, I feel they use the facility more than I do and therefore should be charged accordingly.

Board members... the Dow is down and I am up 'thousands of dollars again' on my holdings (I cannot believe it)...TWO (yield about 11%) turned in outstanding earnings and is now on the fast track (I bet B-man is happy now, lol)...I must be doing something right or just very lucky...I am hitting new highs everyday (this will not last)...! $tagg...!
Pleased for all of you. Down day for me due to LINE ( bought 3 days ago) and WNR. O well can't win them all.
WOW you are on target!!! TWO, is up at $12.30 cool....... This is one
amazing market run and seems to have no end
New highs are GOOD
Stagg, good for you. I'm glad you are doing well today. Yes, I'm happy. I'm still in the red with TWO, but I'm getting closer to a break even point.
Unfortunately I dumped TWO a few weeks ago as the Pain got too much!
B-man...some people keep coming up on this message board (and other boards) and they keep telling us how stupid we are...I know that some of us are 'old school', but we must be doing something right to keep making a lot of profit...I am up 20.3% on TWO without dividends or distributions added back (it has been a sweetheart for me)...
I am also up 38.3% on NCT (even though some investor don't think I know what I am doing, lol) and that is without any dividends added back...I also notice that SDRL (yield about 8.7%) and KKR (yield about 6%,???) seem to be 'picking up steam'...! Good luck investing...! $tagg...!

Just checked with engineering. The modem firmware is old and not syncing with the CMTS. We can get it updated if you can connect it at another location/CMTS. Do you have any friends or relatives that live closed by. If so, give me their account info and I can tell what CMTS they are on and see if you can get it connected there and update the firmware. Let me know.

Forsyth Tech plans 'Back to Work' info sessions
- Matt Evans
- Reporter- Triad Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | Google+ | LinkedIn
Forsyth Technical Community College is planning several information sessions in December, January and February for its "Back to Work" programs.
Those classes are short-term training programs specifically designed for unemployed North Carolinians looking to move into in-demand careers such as electronic health records specialists, electrical linemen, facility maintenance technicians and welders. Residents who qualify for the programs receive the training at no cost through a state grant.
There are additional training opportunities specifically targeting unemployed veterans and N.C. National Guardsmen for positions such as emergency medical technicians, firefighters and pharmacy assistants. Many programs will start in January, with others getting underway in February and March.
Information sessions about the Back to Work programs last 90 minutes and are free and open to the public. Schedule information is online or available by calling (336) 734-7430.
This is the second year Forsyth Tech received funding for its Back to Work program. In the 2012-13 school year, the college accepted 154 students into the program and 138 completed their training, for a completion rate around 90 percent. The first year of the grant required the school to focus on students from Forsyth and Stokes counties, but the current grant opens participation to residents of any North Carolina county.

I upgraded my G1 to the latest radio and SPL - radio-2.22.27.08.img and hoot-1.33.0013d.img. I am running CM 6.1.0 with an ezterry kernal for the 2708 radio.
I am going to give my phone to someone and want to return it phone to stock. I tried flashing the 184.108.40.206I.zip radio in recovery and it said there was not enough space.
I tried following the directions here :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=491350
but fastboot mode said that the .nbh file was an invalid image.
How can I go back to the old SPL and radio?

A woman accused of hitting and killing a motorcyclist while driving drunk changed her plea in court Tuesday morning.
Amanda Casaus pleaded no contest to a charge of vehicular homicide.
Last year, police said Casaus was drunk when she hit and killed 51-year-old Peter Lafond.
Casaus faces up to seven years in prison. Her sentencing date has not yet been scheduled.

It's an MX300 that someone was recently talking about on the forums, his cat broke the cable and the owner was willing to sell it at an insanely good price rather than get it repaired himself. I... THINK it was a 2013? Maybe end of 2012, the guy said it was pretty new but we don't know the serial number.
I wish I could find a serial number or some other identifying mark on this thing, because I can't.
What I can say is that I definitely didn't get that hard case with padded foam interior like in this review. Would've been nice to have, but the carrying bag alone should suffice.
In other news:
-They weren't kidding when they said the MMX300 feels like a solid, durable piece of kit. If this is an example of typical Beyerdynamic construction, it definitely feels trustworthy.
-The cable quality, on the other hand...let's just say it's that cheap, thin-gauge wire I expect to see on budget headsets. I notice that part, of course, because of the spliced replacement connector I got with it that needed some work...and speaking of which, THAT tripped me up for a moment because the outer ring that you'd solder the tip/left channel connection to...wasn't actually connected to the jack's tip conductor, isolated from any actual conductive bits! Fortunately, I found a part that was conductive, made a solder bridge, and that sorted it out.
This is why you keep a multimeter handy if you're gonna do any soldering work. Check those connections!
In any case, now I've got a secure, solid connection so the channels aren't cutting out and making static noises of any sort. Mission accomplished!
-I just noticed some thin black plastic bits in the headband breaking off and coming loose when I extended the earcups from the main headband. I'm guessing they help hold the tension so the earcups don't slide too easily. Still, that's another point off from Beyerdynamic's construction score...
-This thing's a lot more comfortable than I was expecting. The velour pads are nice and cushy, the cups are deep enough that nothing's really pressing against my ears and the parts that touch rest on soft foam, and big enough to be truly circumaural, and it doesn't feel like I've got a vice on my head.
-Sound isolation is moderate, for a closed set. You wouldn't wear these as earmuffs...then again, earmuffs of the sort I've been given while test-taking are insanely uncomfortable, something I'd never want in a headphone, especially a gaming headset that's going to be worn for extended periods.
-I'm not finding anything immediately offensive about the sound presentation. Vocals don't sound extremely recessed, there's some sparkle, and the bass has punch. I still don't know if this is a "bass-light" or "bass-heavy" set, given that nobody says that with a clear reference point, but these are certainly bassier than the AD700.
-The soundstage is surprisingly large for a closed set, at least enough for headphone virtual surround to do its thing. CMSS-3D Headphone frontal cues sound a bit weird and not as prominent compared to my usual open sets, though maybe I just need some time to get used to it. Mental burn-in, if you will. Rear cues are fine, and pretty exact to boot.
EDIT: I found some distinguishing features, comparing to this eBay auction listing.
-The box looks noticeably different. Less colorful, and the MMX300 is pictured at a different angle.
-The connectors are different! They don't look so cheap this time, whereas my MMX300's mic jack (still the original, unlike the headphone jack) looks like the same kind you'd find on a cheap Logitech headset.
-The earcups have black rims on that one. My set has silver rims.
