I still have two CDs without the cases.

In that case,.. I don't care how damn big and heavy the maker is, get his(your) ass to Can Jam!
Actually, I understand completely. I wasn't able to make it to Fl. last year and that was before the whole Meltdown Thingy. Hope to see you there though.

To my ears, the SR-5NB Gold is a more revealing, more transparent headphone. There is just something about electrostatics with small jazz ensembles and acoustic guitar that is tough to beat using dynamic headphones. That said, the RS-1 (reversed HD-414 pads w/hole)/RA-1 combo provides a richer, more lush sound, which does a wonderful job with vocals, particularly female. There is a warmth to the vocals that the Stax misses. The Stax can be almost too revealing with certain recordings. Both set-ups excel at what they do best, and that's why there is no such thing as "one headphone fits all." Just my opinion, based on my ears, of course.
