I was thinking today about what qualities for a headphone are most important to me. I narrowed them down to the following (not in any particular order):
Tonality, Soundstage, Dynamics, Frequency Response, Speed, Detail, Isolation (for a closed back), Comfort
Then I began to ask myself, "would my ideal collection include a headphone that satisfies as many of these as possible or would I rather have headphones that specialize in and are the best at a specific quality?" I agreed with the later.
So based on this I would be interested in getting opinions on what are the best headphones at these qualities (I will provide my thoughts as examples):
Tonality - Utopia (analytical), Ultrasone Edition 15 (Warmer)
Soundstage - Mysphere 3.1
Dynamics - Stellia/Denon AH-D9200
Frequency Response - Utopia
Speed - Koss ESP950
Detail - Utopia
Isolation - AKG K872
Comfort - Mysphere 3.1/Denon AH-D9200
Thanks and look forward to your thoughts!
