1000+ Head-Fier
I was allowed to listen to the K1000 on loan for a few months.
Detto also Mysphere in various stages of development and with different pad versions.
In principle, headphones are and remain headphones and cannot provide the free sound field of a loudspeaker reproduction - nor can they provide the free sound field of a good live performance.
Sure, there were once attempts (I've forgotten the manufacturer's name) to artificially create a 3D sound field including the position sensor of the head, but they didn't catch on either.
But I like listening with good headphones. Currently Composer and DT1990. I would also like to listen to OAE1.

I had an aha effect with artificial head stereophony years ago. Headphones, 17 stereo dummy head LP, birdsong in the middle of the forest, eyes closed, I was in the middle of the forest, sound was coming from all around me. Until I opened my eyes and my brain recognised the deception. Since then, I can no longer repeat this 3D effect.
This proves once again - hearing takes place in the head and not in the ears. Ears are just a dumb microphone.
