YOUR favourite high-end headphones to get lost in the music and forget about equipment???

post #1 of 31
Thread Starter 

So, which high-end headphones do you usually grab if you want to get yourself immersed in music??

These days, mostly the HD-800. I can also get lost with the K-1000, O2 and HP-2.

Then again, I've gotten lost with the MDR-SA5000 and DT48. Those are really polarizing headphones, but I enjoy them.

My JH13Pro sound so amazing, they almost disapear and i only hear music surrounding me. The soundstage, imaging, instrument placement and details level is very high.

Stax O2 Mk2. The phones disappear and the music appears. Exaggerating nothing, they leave nothing out. Also, on my lucky head they are so comfortable I can wear them all night without noticing them.

x2 on but make it a mk1.  There's been a few times where I've forgotten then on my head.  Luckily, I'm a bit of a sloth and move slowly or bad things could have happened.

hd-800 with RSA B-52.  Great combo!

O2s and LCD-2s for sure! 

 

 

Most seem to be able to do this with the HE90, but I cannot imagine being able to ignore the not-subtle coloration, which for me was always a disruption

JH16 for rock,rnb,hiphop

LCD2 for Vocal and Bass and Mid centric songs

HE90 & R10 for me.  The Qualia is pretty spectacular as well.

Although I don't have much trouble submerging into music with a firewire speaker
