Ha! Lately I've found that I like to go back and forth.
While I prefer Stax for all the obvious reasons, I still like to switch it up with dynamics.
I guess that because I havent been in the high-end headphone game all that long,
I am still discovering what various dynamics have to offer in a sense.
Case in point, I wanted to explore the "Grado sound".
I just picked up a Gilmore Lite amp and a pair of MS1i's.
Sound pretty darn good for cheap dynamic cans.
Since I'm a DIY'er, I'm gonna mod them with cocobolo cups to see what more goodness I can squeeze out of them.
Cant do that to Stax so easily. It's all good, I guess that I enjoy having a "stable" of quality cans to pic and choose from.
