Hi all,
 
While I'm new to HeadFi I've been an audio enthusiast for 30+ years.  I recently scored a Bryston BHA-1 headphone amp for my desktop rig.  Of course now I feel the need to have some decent cans to go with it.
 
Years ago I had the best headphone I had heard and could afford, a set of Stax SR-44.  I had those cans for probably 15 years before they gave up the ghost.  I literally wore the earpads off of them.
 
So I'll be mostly lurking and learning, asking questions, looking for headphone events to try stuff.  I think Echo Audio in Portland may be one of the brick-n-mortars left that have a reasonable selection to try.  If anyone knows of another store that has a decent selection in PDX, SEA, or ? let me know.
 
Thanks,
JakeJ
 
I'm also on AudioCircle.

I forgot to mention I am looking hard at the iFi iDSD Micro as my desktop DAC and portable headphone amp.  I signed up for the iDSD Stealth tour in hopes of getting to listen to it.
