I’m a little bit biased to vintage Pioneer gear :blush:
Otherwise I’m not a regular cans user.

I have always been a big sennheiser fan. HD650 for home use with my SN2. HD4.50 for portable use with an iPhone.

Sennheiser HD800 that sit by the main system and are rarely used - can’t remember the last time I used them to be honest.

Was given some Audeze LCD1 which I occasionally use in my second system.

Most used headphones are my B&W PX7 or Etymotic HF3 - both used a lot with my phone whilst out and about…

My audio is in the spare bedroom so I don’t have to listen to tipping point. I still prefer the live gigs because I play a cd and after 20 minutes I fall asleep,
That never happens at a Springsteen concert.

Sh*t… How good are they?
What a beast they must be…

Difficult to say how good they are. Really, really good. Natural, transparent, detailed, very well balanced sound. Comfortable.

The meaning was more: are you satisfied? :sweat_smile:
It seems that way. Congrats Sir. Beautifull pair of… cans.

Stax energiser with L700 earspeakers.

Having spent two years working in a call centre, a time when I couldn’t bear to have any sound on at home, I hate having things stuck in my ears or clamped over them.
Occassionally I will Shazam a piece I hear on the TV, or want a bit better than the speaker on my tablet. I find these middle of Lidl adequate to decide whether to buy a CD, or not.
