[size=xx-small]Which pair of headphones do you end up listening to most often?

I end up using my Grado SR60s more than any of my other headphones, based on many real-world compromises such as how comfortable they are in bed, weight, general comfort, and, well, just which one I tend to reach for. I suppose I can't put all of the reasons into words.

Edit: I meant to post this to the headphone forum. If some kind moderator would move it there, I'd be grateful. If not, no biggie.[/size]

Your wish for moving this thread has been granted.

For the record, I've been using Grado SR-325's most ofter these days, followed by Koss Porta Pros.

Don't have that many decent ones. Only some portable senns.
I listen mostly to the PX100s. But summer is here since yesterday so it will be hot and I think my MX500s will get more use if the weather stays like this. Especially when the house gets hot.

Steve, could you do me a favor. I work on a laptop with a small screen so the fontsize you're using is a bit irritating for me. Could you just use the regulair font?

At work I go between the Ety 4S and the Koss Porta Pro's. Which one depends on how isolated I want to be from interruptions.

At home almost 100% HD-600's

Thanks for moving the thread, Eagle.

Okay, Lisa, I'll use a larger font just for you.

Currently, I still use my Ety 4Ps the most often, but that wins by default since it's the one that I've had the longest. I do use the Eggos when I'm home though.

Also, my preferences might change once I've finished burning in my EX71s and E888s. We'll just have to see in the coming few weeks.

Sony MDR-CD1700 85%, EX70 5%, E888 5% & Senn HD565 5%

It's gotta be a tie between my HD-600 and RS-1.

For home, the W2002 or the W1000. I'm not yet sufficiently enamoured of the CD3000 to use them that often, although they are going through burning in.
For portable, I'm using the ATH-EM7 or the modded D22 Eggos more than the PXC250 recently, purely because my minidisc player or my organiser can't drive the PXC250 without an amp.
