Default What is your latest/ next headphone purchase?

My most recent purchase was the UE-10 pro and I wanted it to be my last. I have a feeling that I will want a pair of full size headphones again, since I miss the ones I sold. I will either go with the K701 + an amp or the K1000.

I just got my UM2s today. After listening to nothing but my ER-6s for months, the change is a total shock. I have to get used to the lack of treble. I have to EQ the hell out of them to get proper treble AND bass out of them. I was considering returning them for the Super.fi 5 Pros, but apparently those have less treble than the UM2s. I could get some serious thumping out of my ER-6s with the proper equalization, so I may check out the ER-4Ps...

Anyways, yeah, I think I'd rather have full-sized headphones for most listening, but since I'm a college student on a budget, proper IEM choice means I need no amp (the 1212m is a crazy powerful source!) and they blocks out roommates.

Another UE-10 Pro purchase here... they're not in my hands yet, so technically it's still a 'future' acquisition.

Wow I have been buying / selling too much lately.

I just got my W1000's in today and bough a pair of HD580's. My next purchase will probably be the Sony CD3000's if I can ever find a pair. Maybe the Grado RS1's. Its me who knows.

Not too sure what I'm going to pair my recently acquired Veda Audio Dynahi with yet. Probably K1000s/650s/PS1s or K3000s!! Tough decisions in the up and coming weeks, especially with the release of the K601 and K701!!!

Either K240s, HD580, or K501. Probably HD580.

Just sold my 650/Zu and my PS-1's should ship this week (goosebumps)

I will probably be very content for a while but the k701's have my eye and I may pick up something from Senn or a woody AT strictly for classical listening aafter the holidays.

DX1000. I'm about to finalize on another purchase though, so that's going to change very soon.

I was considering getting MS-1s but threads about the customer service and the realization that it might not be much of a step up from my MDR-v6 has me lean towards getting a pair of HF-1s. After that, I'm going to need an amp. I know I probably got those components out of order but I would feel pretty bad to let an opportunity to get the HF-1 go by.
