Just grabbed another pair of lcds. Pre fazor 2.2 this go around. These to my ears are much better sounding than the fazor. I'd still choose the 650 over it though.
Same with me approx. 5 years ago. I sold my HD650 in order to buy the LCD 2 rev2.2 Within a couple of days after listening to the LCD HPs I began regretting selling my HD650. The following week I sold the LCD & bought a new pair of HD650 & I distinctly remember smiling with relief and satisfaction once I had the HD650 back on my ears. A few months ago I again sold my HD650 in order to finance an RS1 w/ buttons because I'd read & so many times how legendary their sound was. I have since done what I did with the LCD 2 rev2.2, the RS1 is now history and another new HD650 sits on my head as I'm writing this.
The definition of insanity is when someone does the same thing over and over again expecting different results. I have regained my sanity and the HD650 is here to stay. Also, 2 weeks ago I purchased an Ruppert Neve RNHP headphone amplifier and this amp and the HD650 were made for each other. The sound is simply outstanding. Imagine the HD650 being detailed, airy, very good body, balanced & lush; a bit fast also which is, according to the general consensus especially on Head-fi, not an HD650 attribute, the opposite of the mythical veil.
The HD650, when properly amped is a hell of an headphone.
