Walt, this is a pet peeve of mine. I have a number of Sony headphones,
V6 and 7506 for studio use, and the first thing I do is peel off the
"digital" label from each earpiece, preferably in front of somone I can
impress with my deep knowledge of how these things are NOT digital -
that's just marketspeak! If it said "FOR digital" at least it would be
truthful... instead of truthiness (new word for "wish it were true")...
