[Edit: This series of posts was extracted from markl's Petition to update Stereophile's recommended headphones/amps list thread, in which Tyll Hertsens suggested having official threads for important products. -kerely]
I heartily support Tyll's suggestion of an 'official' page or thread for each of the common or well-regarded headphones and components. I've often wondered why Head-Fi didn't have such a thing. I may be worth even doing a Headwize-style off-forum page dedicated certain components -- not only would that offer a more permanent solution, it would allow search engines to find it.
I would also be interested in seeing Head-Fi's own recommended components thread/page, perhaps updated annually. An easy way to do this would be to set up a well-constructed poll (probably using a run-off system) to select the components, then have certain members cooperate to produce a comprehensive review -- a lot of it's already been done, so it's just be a matter of assembling information.
And I think the idea of sending more letters to more audio rags is great. Keep it up, markl -- and whoever else is helping out. I look forward to seeing more printed attention paid to headphones.
