For those of us with multiple headphones, which ones are you listening with now?

Cheesy ? 😳😂🤣🤣🤣 . Actually, my favourite ‘Chesky’ is “New York Reunion” by the McCoy Tyner Quartet (w/ Joe Henderson on tenor saxophone).
Fixed it! LOL. Auto Correct is no friend of mine!

Thanks

Do you have any of the Chesky CDs….? ☑️☑️
It's a bit of an audiophile cliché at this point but I do really love Rebecca Pidgeon's "The Raven" Chesky release, sonically and musically.

Giving my HD650's some solid exercise with the above album - sounds sublime :L3000:
Some of her recordings are SOTA and the music is great too!

Wow, the metalwork on those looks very serious (and heavy) - how are they for sound and comfort?

Build quality is top notch. Heavy :L3000: Comfortable for me because I lay my head back. Probably one of the flattest frequency responses I've heard barring sub bass . I'll have Jada model them after I give them a good listen and cleaning. They are in excellent condition.

Nominal impedance? Sensitivity?

Nominal impedance? Sensitivity?
From a brochure
These reasonably priced stereo headphones feature an unusually high sensitivity (or efficiency) of 100dB/mW. This means you can connect them directly to your tuner, tape deck or pre-amplifier.

Because the also feature a big 700mW per channel input capacity, the Monitor 10 headphones may also be used with your amplifier ore receiver without fear of overloading
