Hello. Apparently giving Head-Fi a once-over is enough to turn oneself over "to the dark" side... I came here a few months ago to ask a question or two.. read a couple of articles, did a bit of research... I've been lurking ever since, but now the headphone fly seems to have made another bite
Now I own 6 pairs of (in my opinion) decent to excellent headphones, two portable headphones AMPs and three desktop DAC/AMP combos..

(I'm also a cheapskate on top of being poor, so everything is budget, but imo good enough for me.) (and of course a heap and a pile of not-so-great cheap headphones.)
To be fair, I've always been a bit of an audio enthusiast and would've probably bought a pair of decent headphones even without Head-Fi, but probably not five

Depends on how you look at it, you guys here are either a dream or a nightmare come true
My first good pair of headphones were Somic MT82EFIs that *I* think are great. They are closed-back and isolate well enough so I could use them at home and not bother the wide or kids, even when they were sleeping. Then someone (I forgot who) pointed me to Takstar HI2050 direction and boy do I love them. Recently my wife "acquired" my Somics and I had to hunt for another pair of closed-backs. As I've been a fan of the Takstar's I ordered a pair of Pro80s (they haven't arrived yet). And of course at the same time I was offered a (in my opinion) very good deal on a couple of Superlux headphones (HD330 & HD660) so I ordered those also...

Should be nice when they all arrive
So, yeah, I'm back. Hello everyone
