    Best headphones you've ever listened to.

    have not heard Senn.800's nor Denon 7000 nor R10's but have heard some electro-statics and they sound brilliant/lush but overall I will say the Sony SA-5000 is best headphone my ears have had the pleasure of hearing with an overall music genre collection ... and reasonable/sane price at that ....

    Syd Barrett's Pink Floyd versus the Later Floyd

Roger Waters has confirmed this as they were boyhood friends ...) I don't...
