I'm bored with AKG, what manufacturer next?

[Fitz]

Since I've tried all of the good stuff AKG has to offer, there is not the same excitement to finding more old headphones to try out. I'm starting to get a little bored of the same headphones over and over, so I think I want to try the best discontinued headphones from another manufacturer, and sell the AKGs. Any suggestions on where I should start? Maybe with Beyerdynamic since I already have a couple so it gives me a head start..

Ideas?

Stax... good luck in your quest trying to find some of those old rarities

1 Vote for Beyerdynamic! I love those silver pads soooo much.

I can get almost any rare headphone I want on short order, that is why I got bored so quickly. Maybe Stax will take me two months instead of one month to get most of them? That will be more fun time with the search.

Gee, I wonder if this post has something to do with the date?

What date? I'm staying single for the time being.

Whoa Beyerdynamic would be cool. Especially DT531. I was going to buy DT531 as my first Head-Fi purchase, but I ended up going for SR-125. Speaking of Grado I would recommend them because they are so much fun. Their discontinued cans are way cool. And I think they are a logical step after AKG.
One thing is Sennheiser have a plethora of discontinued cans.

Maybe going to http://www.gmail.com could remind you (and give you a great laugh).

I thought I'd be the first to reply, but then I write too much!

AKG has the most interesting lineup IMO. If you're bored... consider a new hobby

Ok, what hobby do you suggest instead? Or should I start a new thread for that: "best hobby under $100"?

Best hobby under $100 - pants collecting
