Not sure where in NE you are, but I think there is a possible Boston meet in the works. If you can make that you check out my recabled k340s and maybe bring the Mapletree along.

Back on topic...I need more Headphones...and amps, ICs, sources, etc., etc!

Man that's hardcore. You swap headphones to music! Of course, that's the most logical way of doing it, but I've always thought of it going the other way, select the music to suit the strengths of the can.

Wayne seems to have a very reasonable take on this- I do the same thing (as do most I assume) for things that I don't wish to become fanatical about- I tend to seek out the best within my budget and be done with it. Had I not happened upon this god forsaken sink hole (

), I would have done the same with headphones.

I have had the DT880 for over a year now 2003 version and must say that I am so satisfied every time I put them on, even for Trance with this phone that lacks impact. They are re-cabled by Larry and sound terrific even before the re-cable I thought I was in some sort of heaven. I own the HD600 and Koss pro4aa, AT700 and have heard the K701 (which were impressive as I love a big soundstage) but nothing has put the 880 in place yet, despite listening to headphones of much higher calibre and price... they are for me, the unnatainable ./...

I wouldn't be happy with just one, only because the one I use at home and the one I use portably just couldn't be the same. I'm not willing to subject nicer, larger headphones to the rigors of the outside world, nor an I willing to put up with the obtrusiveness of IEM's at all times when listening in a quiet room.

vo328 - I feel the same way, though my SR-404 gets the job done 80% of the time. During that other 20% of the time I just want a heavier, funner, bigger sound, so I end up usually just using my speakers. However, I see some CD3000s in my future...

I have grown to "need" an open, closed, and portable set of headphones (not to mention a rig to accompany each) like I need air or water.

 

[Duggeh]

I could live with just the O2 or the AMT. Or down a tier, Im sure I could do with only my Jecklin Floats, or even a PX100.

So long as I could keep all of my CDs and LPs.

 

[apnk]

I could...for a while. But like Duggeh said I rather have all my cd's.

 

[milkpowder]

I'm pretty happy with just one main headphone at the moment. I guess I'm a minority, but whatever floats my boat

 

[Aman]

Me! I am!

 

[Hi-Finthen]

And ...This other one ........And that one , of course .......Oh yea and...........

Hehe, I like your avatar snacks. At first it looks like Jabba the Hut or something, but when you look closer you see it's a gorillas nose and mouth. Maybe I'm just crazy
