LOL I have a hard time believing you have kept your overall budget below $1005.72 with a list of headphone like that.

Wow, the YH-1 has risen straight to the top with the Lambdas, eclipsing the Gamma, QP85, Float II, and SR-001? I knew you liked it, but I didn't know you liked it that much.

Well, it's not an objective rating. YH-1 has a lot of shortcomings, but there is something about the midrange that just makes it sooooo smooth and involving for me. It's very flat, accurate and at the same time punchy and is great for rock. All in all it's a great companion to my Lambdas. That's why it's in that top spot in such esteemed company.

Ratings at the top and bottom are pretty reliable (within my subjective preference only, of course). In the middle things are less crystalline. And synergies of certain phones with musical genres and mood can make up for up to 3 ranks
