Hi Head-Fi!
Long time lurker, first time account maker.
I love a wide range of music and I've been a speaker hifi listener for years. I iust recently got into headphone listening. I love hearing the fine details in a recording and headphones are definitely the easier and more cost-effective way to do that.
My speaker setup:
Audiolab 6000a integrated, amp, Audiolab 6000cdt CD transport, Bluesound node 2i streamer, Clearaudio Concept turntable with stock mm cartridge, Schiit Mani 2 phono preamp, Monitor Audio Silver 100 speakers
My home listening headphones:
Hifiman Ananda, powered by headphone amp of Audiolab 6000a
My portable iem setup:
Phone running Tidal
Fiio btr5 dac/amp
Moondrop Blessing 2 Dusk
Desired upgrades:
Hifiman Arya Stealth Edition - I borrowed a pair and it goes beyond what I love about the Ananda
Dedicated headphone DAC and amp - haven't tried anything besides my Audiolab, but curious if a few hundred dollars in Schiit would be a worthy upgrade. I'll experiment once I get an Arya.
