if durability and simplicity is the path then my recabled hd201s would keep me happy. if eargasm is desired for eternity then my recabled k702s would definatly do it for me. ( sorry if im a fanboy of the 70x but they just float my boat!) happy listening everybody

My HD595 120 Ohm's. hands down the most loved cans in my collection.

K1000.

I'd own the timelessly classic HD600s, or Beyer DT250-80s, it's hard to decide... the DT250-80s are nostalgic to me, they got me started, and would surely survive nuclear winter they're so durable!!

These are the two I'd be considering but, although I recognise the versatility choosing the JH13Pros gives me, I think they would be more of a problem if something went wrong whereas, unless I had a total part failure, I could probably still get the O2 Mk1s running until 'forever/eternity' arrived.

Q40 by M-Audio. I thought the IE8 was great. Then I stumbled upon the Q40 at the local audio shop. Considerably cheaper... but the music it reproduces... dear god I love it.

K501s with K701 pads for comfort because I must wear them forever.

 

[sampson_smith]

Very likely the Denon D2000 (amazing at its price-point) or the Grado HF-2 (amazing across myriad genres).

If I knew in advance they would never fail, Sony R-10.

If not, Senn HD-800 (at least till I hear Beyer T-1...)

HD800 for me. More like I listen to, more I tends to like it.

For me it's a tie between the YH-3 or the Senn 414. Both haver very good sound signatures and are very durable from what I've experienced.

In the end, I think I'm going to lean a little more toward the YH-3.
