Fan of the wood but not a fan of it's tuning. It's an odd man out so to speak amongst the AT woodies.

It's just so perfect size I want it to be the best sounding headphone that suitable to walk around with and not look silly

If you really dig the look, go ahead and take it. It is one of the most beautiful portable headphone out there. They sound ok, just don't expect amazing sound. Personally I don't think wear DCA aeon noire is silly.

Checking back in with the E3 as my only music-listening headphone. It's totally broken my yearning for new headphones. I just haven't really found that it's missing anything that I'd truly need from another headphone. Love this dang thing!

Did you still have your AC when you got the E3 (sorry if you mentioned that before)?
Would be interested in how they compare. I found the ZMF fit to be utterly perfect (as it’s also easily adjustable), but I do love the sound of the E3…

I was talking about audio technica WP-900

I did have the AC, ya. Also a great headphone and has some awesome bass in it. Ended up preferring the more neutral tone of the E3 so I kept them instead

Not sure if it was an amp thing (I have a Pass Labs HPA-1). ZMF VCs just sounded fuller to me. Ended up selling the DCAs. Buyer's very happy though.

Only silly if YOU can see them..
Yes, its a pity the higher end cans really do stick out like a sore thumb without using a winter time hood for walkabout.

diana mrs the only ones ive seen that seem semi normal when worn

Like I said, if you dig the look and you love audio technica's house sound, go ahead and get it. Otherwise, I will look elsewhere. There is just not so many options for great sounding portable, pretty, foldable wired headphones. Maybe consider IEMs.

Same here, but for now I’m enjoying that difference between these two and have been rotating them and the Bokeh for the last week. Jury’s still out on the permanent collection piece which is also why I’m eyeing the AC

AC & E3 are very good complimentary headphones if you're good to keep both. They're very different tunings - same with VC + E3. E3 is going to be more straight-up neutral, very revealing, etc. while the AC/VC have their own unique/fun tunings that mix it up quite a bit from the E3

Liric 2 it’s perfect for that.

When I tried Diana 2 outside they would 'crinkle' from the wind.

Anyone tried V222 vs MJ3 on the E3? Using BF2/64 as the DAC. Looking for the least fatigue and spacious presentation. My concern is the V222 will be bright/forward like the G111 MK2.
