Do you consider Head-Fi to be a journey or a destination? My first foray into the head-fi world was purchasing a pair of HD590’s on-line quite awhile ago (long before I found this site). I knew nothing thing about these headphones, but I read good things about them at the time (and I also got a free watch). Then I read about the need for a headphone amp. I bought a Cmoy and a Headphonia amp on eBay (prior to reading about the controversy on this site). Since joining this site I have purchased Vmoda Vibes and Grado SR225’s. My next purchase will be a tube amp - not the best out there but a decent starter amp. I’m loving the Grado’s and can see myself getting an RS-1 or GS1000 down the line. Or maybe I’ll end up with a top of the line Sennheiser, AKG , Beyer , Ultrasone or any of the other great brands of headphones I’ve been reading about on this site after trying out cans in those lines. The point is, I want to experience the journey not just the destination. What do you think?

i dont want to think

don't forget the music

and remember: wire is wire, which implies that 18-gauge zip cord is as good as Valhalla power cables

Just kidding! Not!!

Just like a lot of things, but remember that the speaker community digs the pit a lot deeper than we do.

the journey is where you learn; the destination is your ideal setup (or close to it).

 

[daduy]

it's the never ending journey

Destination? What destination? Like the Lexus' commercial... "relentless pursuit of perfection"

journey is for the rich man

destination is for the poor man (me)

journey for me, destination for some lucky few.

Although since arguably, this is a never ending journey, that there is no final destination. Even if we are looking for one.

How many "I have found my sonic nirvana" threads have their been, only to see that it was never true a few months down the road?

It's a cleverly designed plot.
