What headphones are these? Also a random headphones related question for anyone here. Why are headphones often referred to as "cans"? The only thing I can think of is a game kids used to play long ago with a tin can at each end of a string.
Show us your Head-Fi station at it's current state. No old pictures please...

Agree - as one of the best
. Equal in price point but also with amplification, The Warwick Bravura sits right up next to them though as far as eStats go.
I feel they both sound special and unusual in different ways but X9000 is more detailed and bigger sounding than Bravura in my memory.Agree - as one of the best

wife and kids are away for 3 weeks! cleaned up the hse, cleared up all the toys and junk, moved the furniture around, and shifted out the big boy toys
going to hook up the REL sub and do some measurements for room correction later today. Dec should be a good month if the Raal tube amp and my new dac get delivered on time.
I guess You must love classical music based on your cans. I tried driving Susvara with Primaluna speaker out which turned out to be a disaster lol

classical music is definitely not on my playlist LOL.. years and years of being forced to learn piano when I was a kid completely killed any love for it..!
Oops sorry for wrong guess and your story which is so typical in Asian culture as well lol . Then you use Raal and T+A for Hip hop?

Someday, the sheer musicality of simplicity will sink in…

I listen to pretty much everything except rap and classical. I had Susvara before but sold it since I had two driver failures, one soon after the other, and also because I got more enjoyment out of the T+A. I have a few other headphones which I like to rotate too.

Unbelievable setup! I love the wood on your table, is it maple?

@bcowen would say that it has to be maple - it sounds best!
