I've never heard the Vali, but I'll likely never let my Auteurs go. I have been consolidating to 1 open dynamic, 1 closed, 1 open planar and 1 closed, and I kept my Auteurs over my Verite Opens and Aeolus (and Focal Clear MGs that I traded for the Aeolus in the first place).

You need to allow yourself at least one cheat to get a Gjallarhorn.

I mean, technically, it's a horn loaded dynamic, which is a different category than a planar or standard dynamic...makes sense to me

I have the same mantra. So I just bought a DT 1990 Pro from the classifieds cause they count as semi-open in my book

I have a LSA HP-2. I might keep it because it can be its own category on a technicality.

I think I've had enough experience with the GH50 JME mk2. Now I have a question: what is considered as an upgrade to these?

The Gh50 JM Edition Mk.1.

Just kidding, John M.

Nowadays, the 1990 Pros are the headphones I mostly use... I love them because they are "multi-genre" headphones (although I'm heterosexual ).

Today, I stayed at home and during the morning and afternoon I used my HD 800s and now I'm with the 1990 Pros at not loud volume and there are no complains from my wife or children which right now are sleeping.

Interessting device, but kinda odd for a desksetup imo

It's not weird at all. I listen to Kennerton Rognir with CEntrance HiFi-M8 V2 (XLR - 1,6W@75Ω). It takes up little space on my desk and I am quite happy with the sound. The CEntrance HiFi-M8 V2 is connected to a Dell Inspiron and it does not run out of power while listening.

Planar or Dynamic? I suppose in dynamic space the Rögnir Dynamic although I haven’t heard them. In planars, there are a lot of options depending on tuning and open/closed preference. The Rögnir Planar is epic and my favorite headphone (closed back or open).

Have you heard the JME make2? How would Rognir Dynamic compare?

I have a JME Mk2 however I haven’t heard the Rögnir Dynamic. A few obvious differences are the Rögnir is newer dynamic driver tech and lacks a horn.

I haven't heard the GH50, but after recently acquiring the Rognir Dynamic, I am quite happy with their performance

They are also graphene-coated 50mm drivers, so I thought there are no big difference in driver quality. Can you share some insights on Rognir vs JME mk2?

Unclear as yes they use same basic tech but whether they’ve subtly enhanced the driver or focused mainly on newer learnings on tuning and dampening in the cup shape and design I don’t know. By calling it a Rögnir I assume they’ve taken some insights from the planar design and cascaded it down as well as accounted for the lack of a horn compared to the GH.
