I will start with these - Sonus Faber Pryma in coffee and cream. Perhaps not the ultimate high-end but I like them.
Also pictured are my son’s JBLs for children - he did not know we had bought them and he ‘discovered’ them on the headphone stand - he was so proud. They sound good for what they are and are limited to 85db.
Done about 160 hours of flying in these Sony WH-1000M3 headphones. Awesome noise control and not too bad in the fidelity too, coupled with RHA Bluetooth transmitter make a good team.
Then a pair of Oppo PM-3 for some better fidelity but also keep the family noise out.
And finally Oppo PM-2 open magna planar’s for some time when the family are all out.
@Richard.Dane might be persuadable to port the posts from the apparently defunct thread into this, if asked nicely…
My Audeze, open and closed.
AKG701’s gone AWOL…hiding somewhere (victim of domestic tidy up I suspect)
( i’m just a ) Jealous Guy …
Between the two, which do you prefer the most?
@Richard.Dane HD6’xx are a classic. Sometines i think in doing an upgrade to my M2. But realize that barely use more than 1 time per month, so doesnt make sense…
You mean my Audeze? (Apologies if you meant another post!) Very tough call, I love them both. The XC are the most comfortable as I’m still breaking in new pads for the 3’s. Soundwise, I adore the openness the imaging in the LCD3, but the XC are no slouch at all for a closed phone. Bass is just nice, not oveblown or lean. I’m gloriously happy to have the choice. I tend to use the open phones more for classical and jazz (as I used to with the 701), but mostly it depends on whether my wife is watching TV 
High end cans ? Or everyday ?
Yes, sorry for the badly use of the reply mode

Out and about
A bit biased towards the pro market, I do also have a pair of Beyer DT100s but they are strictly reserved for actual pro use - not so much in recent years however!
High end cans ? Or everyday ?
…everyday except my wife’s tea, she is a loose leaf hi-end user. I’m just the bag man…
How old are these, may i ask?
Good to see some classic Pioneer headphones. My first proper headphones were Pioneer - a pair of SE-2s, which I must have bought sometime in 1981.
