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

I just auditioned the Focal Clear Mg vs. The Audeze MM-500 At my local store. The dealer had a TOTL Moon streamer for my test. The MM-500 is nearly twice the price, but it sounds way better all around. Much better bass definition. Better soundstage and isolation. Better than my Lcd-xc!

I am listening to the MM-500 now and heartily agree.
The Clear MG were a major disappointment for me, while I much prefer(red) the Clear OG.

This album never disappoints. Listening on these KLH Ultimate One’s that just arrived today. Definitely a V shaped sound in a good way. Strong bass that’s fun to listen to, and clear highs with an excellent soundstage.

[Casablanca: January, 1978.] Well, I am a taker of (sucker for) well arranged, well orchestrated disco … with soaring guitar, horns, percussion, strings, with Stygian bass … plus vocals. This is the best of the genre; and through NDH-30: 🤪😄🤪 !!

If You Wait (2013) by London Grammar - Getting some lovely depth and detail on this album through the RS-1x and I absolutely love Hannah Reid's voice - a mighty fine listen for 5:22am :darthsmile:

@peterinvan and @pataburd out of those two which one would you call more dynamic sounding?

damn the t1 looks fantastic. must also be super comfy. how i the bass on these?
Original quite well extended and natural, I have pad swapped for Dekoni Elite Velour for more bass and to take down treble slightly.
After the change they have been my go to for electronica.
