The First Day by David Sylvian and Robert Fripp - Back in the early 90's Robert Fripp asked David Sylvian to join a new line up of King Crimson but Sylvian wasn't up for it, instead they collaborated on this album. It's quite experimental but very good and well recorded, with Brightness Falls being my favourite.
Went with the D7200's as they do well with the sound of the album being on the darker side and they help bring out Trey Gunn's Chapman stick.

Recommended by Roon Radio after playing Music For Airports (see above). Another great ambient adventure for me...

I'm really looking to compare the percussion from this track with xbass enabled and disabled plus do a comparison between Signature and Mojo vs Mojo 2. The channel imbalance makes Signature hardly to use with IEMs unfortunately and IEMatch kills a lot of dynamics.

Roon > Naim Uniti Atom HE > Focal Stellia

I think I've only listened to this album a few times, just when it was released, but watching a Q&A video of The Headphone Show, Resolve mentioned it and I just wanted to give it a listen again. It's great with the Stellias, all the details are there, acoustic instruments sound beautifully and, as a closed-back headphone, you just close your eyes and get lost in the music.
