Hello Fellow Head-Fi'ers
I'll make this short and sweet. Recently(today) I attended the Salon Audio Festival here in Montreal Canada.
There were many booths and rooms for many brands. I enjoyed the speakers and amps/dacs/turntables.
My main focus however was the headphone sections and products from known brands.
I made it my goal to find 1 or 2 headphones I could buy by this summer as a gift/treat to myself.
here is a list of headphones that i've tried:
Hifiman: Susvara, Sundara, Arya, Ananda, 1000v2, 1000se and Jade II.
Focal: Utopia, Stellia, Clear, Elegia, Elear
Final Audio: D8000, Sonorous VI, Sonorous III
Audeze: LCD2, LCD2C, LCDX Pro, LCDXC, LCD3
Sennheiser: 800, 800S, 820
Now here is where I need your help/experience/wisdom/recommendation or even just shared talk.
The Cans I enjoyed the most were the, Jade II, Arya, Susvara, D8000, Stellia, Elegia, LCD2C, LCDX Pro.
Cans I can actually afford, Elegia, LCD2C, LCDX Pro, Arya.
Do you guys/gals think there is a can that sits in a good overall flexible sound/cost value from the "can afford" list i've mentioned? :S
Thanks very much for consideration and advice! <3
