To put some context to Eric's discussion re. Sennheiser vs Kennerton.
Eric's Dac/Amp is top of class. Superb tube setup!
His setup works so well with the Senns, like a lot of tube setups including my own Bottlehead crack.
It's well known in our community how this combo fights well above its weight!
The comments made by Eric can apply to ANY high end headphones. The HD series Senns are loved by many in this hobby.
I will add...my HD6XX on Bottlehead crack sound incredible. On my solidstate system, not as good. My Kennerton Thridi will not play as well on my OTL amp. But it does play at moderate volumes.
At these low volumes I think Thridi sounds better than HD6XX.
Thridi on solidstate amp is still better than HD6XX on OTL.
In summary, senns with tubes are a fantastic synergy. Planars and solidstate are fantastic also.
I personally think Kennerton Thridi is perfect. Atleast with my amp/dac and with my music selection.
Cheers
