I believe your headphones say that you have a passion for music, clarity, detail and the ability to moved, by the music that they deliver. Not so much as a status symbol to say look what I can afford; but how much you love the music, and effort gone into the making of the music. I would love a set of earphones that just make me stop and just lose myself and envelope me in the music. To feel as if I'm there with the musicians as it is being played. My headphones say that I take my music seriously and don't bother me while they're on.
I've only had a few headphones, and earphones. A pair Sony MDR V6's that are over 20 years old given to me by an old friend that still sound great for V6's, a pair of HD580's that when purchased nearly 15 years ago I believe that I love to listen to, l own them along with a pair of Yuin PK2's that I really like. My first pair of Ety's, HF3's, B&O A8's that suck, and my latest, Triple FI 10's that I wish I could brighten up and get more instrument separation, more detail.
