Headphoneus Supremus
Whoa! I know you've had a number of the great cans over the past 8+ years including the Stax top shelf items.Of all the headphones I've owned and listened to (from Stax to Sennheiser, Focal, ZMF, HiFiMan, Audeze, etc), this would be my choice for metal as well as all other genres. But this will of course vary per person.
Off the top of your head, which can(s) are most similar w/ a good & large (non estat) SS amp?
