Narrowing down the field: Sennheiser HD598, HD600 & HD650
I was in the same boat. I found out they are different headphones for different purposes. HD600 - They are still pretty good unamped but I would prefer the HD 598 if you never intend to use an OTL amp. I auditioned them with a bottlehead crack. Very neutral and analytical from top to...- essasin

Philips Fidelio X2?!
Thank you for the suggestions and tips. I had my eye on the Woo Audio stand and I really like the simplicity of the Senn HH-10. I can never decide on accessories and I may just have to pick up a pelican case instead because our cat loves to lean or sit on ANYTHING new. Shipping box from Amazon...- essasin

Philips Fidelio X2?!

Even though they have smaller headbands the suspension band looks like its stretching. It could be the angle...- essasin

Philips Fidelio X2?!
I was torn between the between hd 600/650 and x1/x2. It took me weeks to finish reading these threads, reviews and comparison but I ultimately settled on the x2s. I can not wait to take them for a spin. In the meantime, do headphone stands cause the headband (hammock suspension one) to stretch?- essasin

Switched my q6600 over to watercooling with a slight overclock since I don't have the AC blasting and it makes the room hot.- essasin

Which IEMs ?
The Livewires fit your bill perfectly except I do not think I can lay on my side without feeling like I'm pushing the iem into my ear. The connector sticks out your ear ever so slightly and it gives it a little push if I'm my side.- essasin
