Like many others, I've spent a lot of time reading through the plethora of information available on this forum as a casual unregistered user. My main cans are a pair of Focal Elex, wired to a THX 789 + SMSL M6. Looking forward to continue spending time here, only now as a registered user.
Hi Folks,
As an new member at head-fi want to introduce myself shortly.
I’m 42 years old and well since 2020 I’m addicted to headphones. Before that I mainly listened to my front loaded horns equipped with Lowther and an Burmester/Mark Levinson combo. Cause my son was born priorities changed and the time for enjoying music became short. Cause I’m travelling the whole country week for week I thought it would be an good idea to get mobile equipment…well rabbit hole got me
Hi all,
Learnt much from reading posts on Head-Fi. Finally got registered. Split my time between E-Mu Teak with Drop THX-AAA headamp for headphones and Harbeth SHL5+ and Naim Supernait 2 for speakers.
I'm Mark.
I'm a newcomer in Hi-fi world. My enthusiasm actually started quite recently. Although not so long, I do have a complete set of DAC (Topping EX50)/Amp (SMSL SH-9s & Xduoo MT604). They are not high-end, but quite adequate for all my gears. My high-end IEMs include FA A8000, Sony IER-Z1r, Thieaudio Prestige ltd and UE Live. I also have some mid (Andro, SE846, Variations, etc.) and lower-end (Mee P1, JVC Drop FWX01, etc.). My only Hi-fi headphone is T1 v2 (600ohm), another one is Pioneer DJ X10 for non-critical listening. I always look at Head-Fi before pulling the trigger to buy something. I've used search function of the forum a lot, too. Finally got registered here.
Hi, I am Chris, I live in Germany and I love music. To no surprise I had always good gear but not the expensive stuff.
This year I upgraded a few things:
Canton reference K8 speakers, AVM CS2.3 amp and a LCD-2 Closed back.
Now I am looking for a pair of open cans. I bought a refurbished He1000V2 .
And a headphone amp: cayin HA-3a.
Happy to be apart of the site 4 year audiophile who got into this hobby accidentally because IT gives you a lot of quiet time and I missed listening to music in my car/at college in my dorm
New guy here, I've spent a lot of time reading posts here and even though I'm not a big phone user (I only have one, a Grado SR80) I do plug it into my desktop Musical Paradise MP-301 mkIII at night fairly often. So, I thought I should join up.
Just to add: I like the way members here like to talk about audio rather than argue pedantically.
Hi! New member here. Happy to be part of this awesome community!
I've actually been reading a lot of reviews and posts for a year now and I want to especially thank o0genesis0o, Ichos and Dsnuts for their very awesome and detailed reviews!
Hello, I have been browsing, learning from, and standing in awe of this website for quite a while. I have been listening to my Sennheiser HD 650's for several years now, part of that time with a Musical Fidelity X-Can V3 headphone amp, but not as much as I would have liked due to work. I finally retired from work about a year ago and thought I could finally start listening for several hours a day to all of my music collection. However, I have developed hearing loss on one side, which must have started slowly years ago, but this year it has become so bad that I had surgery (tympanoplasty) done in August. There is still a small chance that my right ear may completely heal, but not counting on it, so I started looking for a headphone amp that has separate volume controls for left and right channels, and found the La Figaro 339 tube headphone amplifier in an online auction. Well, I won the auction, and I'm now the proud owner of this amp since two days ago. However, I know absolutely nothing at all about tubes (and very little about electronics in general), so in the coming weeks and months I will be spending a lot of time on the main La Figaro 339 thread here. I want to thank all contributors past, present, and future for helping me get up and running with this beautiful tube amp, which has received many accolades and rave reviews here and elsewhere. Many thanks in advance for your help!!
Just caught the headphone bug recently and have really been enjoying reading through the forums. I’ve been learning a lot for sure! Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

Though I have been on Head-Fi as a lurker for quite some time, I now find myself wanting to be a more active member of the community. I'm excited to learn more about headphones and experience some of the higher end offerings after spending my first year and change focusing on the midrange and entry levels of the hobby. I am also longer term planning my first 2 channel setup. I also am interested to see when I rank up from New Head-Fier to whatever the next ranking is. Is there a post that explains the process of "leveling up"?
