Oooo, like the first post on this page, one day, I will own one.......

Bah! Lovely picture polartech. One went on ebay a few weeks ago, I don't suppose......?

See the antennas? My Favorite Martian.

Those Pioneer SE-L40's are a gorgeous work of art. I'd stare at those all day. How do they sound? Worth the purchase? ( what kind of question is that... )

Sansui SS-20

Yamaha HP-1

Grundig 211-A 400 ohm

Elega OEM "Audiophile" ( Marantz import? ) on right beside the AKG 240 M 600 ohm

@ nick n: How do the AKG K240's sound (and impressions from music examples)?  Are they easy to drive since its the 600ohm not the common 50ohm one, I've always wanted to pick one of them up (around $30-50 here) from some local bin's :D

I prefer the DF and the Sextett over the M.   You do get a little more bang for the buck with the M.  They're not hard to drive because they're fairly sensitive.  You will need an amp though.
