In comparison to WertherDVX's collection! My goodness...

http://www.head-fi.org/forums/members/wertherdvx/

I'm speechless. I really don't know what to say, except... wow! That, and he must have run out of energy when it came to listing amps, sources, cables, and the like.

Edit: The man obviously enjoys collecting and archiving headphones, as well as keeping a low profile here at Head-Fi. So please, folks, don't be bombarding him with PM requests to borrow X, Y, or Z, or even to do a bunch of comparions on your behalf. He's described himself as a non-audiophile and a headphone archivist, so let's leave it at that.

There is no need for social commentary either (you know, about the starving children in Africa). Afterall, this is only one aspect of the man's life, and the rest of it is his business.

But... wow!!!

Very impressive. That is a fantastic collection - I've seen him active on the WTBs in the forums, but had no idea.

I bet Stax is next.

I'm curious to find out how many he uses on a regular basis. Even if he doesn't use any, that's fine. This is obviously a collection and should be considered in the same vein as stamp or coin collecting.

That's an amazing list of headphones there. And it'd have to be to beat out Santa!!

my man needs a pair of Koss clips. Long Live the KSC 35/75!

and i agree with JJCha. Electrostatic Earspeakers are next! He'll have plenty of fun hunting down the bajillions of STAX configurations!

isn't it sad that the man has 120+ cans, and not only are we not fazed, but we are actually recommending the man get MORE cans? the Curse is very strong.
