are expensive headphones really worth it? - Page 5

Listen to what you like. Some people on here take this whole "audiophile" hobby to a level of obsession and extreme. If you like the sound and can afford it, get it. Everyone has different taste and likes.

If you spend time obsessing over little details and whether or not the format mp3, FLAC, etc then you're not really enjoying yourself as much as you're creating another job. Music is supposed to be enjoyable, not a chore.

I think going in gradual is the key. Living with my Crossfades for 2 months had made me see the value of great construction build quality, but also made me realize, they are great for EDM and other bass driven genres. Too bad I enjoy lots of guitar based tunes! Enjoying my experience with the headphones makes me feel like investing in a balanced, easy to drive portable would serve me well. I think you really have to assess your needs and listening habits firmly, early on.
