for now, anyway...no winners!
nice point.. actually I'm using two different configurations:
with HD800 I prefer Kenrad VT231 drivers and Airtech Omega Strong RCA cables: it's like listening to a lighter and more comfortable audeze!! low frequencies are rich and deep, the soundstage remains enormous and high frequencies are ... perfect.
With LCD3, in these last days, I've found a very good solution: Shuguang drivers, Audioquest King Cobra RCA cables and a DIY discouplig solution under WA5: stone (ardesia)-neoprene-stone. Next week I'll try some Ceraballs under CDP: the sound is magic, not so coloured as it was with the other configuration, that works heavenly with HD800
sorry for my bad english
I hear you bundy, all the best to you in your fight!
I also suffer from 2 chronic conditions. When the first (Chrohn's Disease) started, I was 11, and during my teenage years I was often socially isolated because of it - and that's when my love for music really started. My 2nd condition is a chronic joint condition (ankylosing spondilitis), which meant chronic joint pains for the last 10 years. Again, music is a life force.
I understand. My health isn't what it used to be, putting it mildly, and I have to deal with constant discomfort. Being able to zone into the music really helps the time go by.
When I read "have some Beats Studio Wireless and Senn HD650's. I'm not an overly analytical listener, I lean towards fun, musical headphones." I thought for sure you were going to mention Grados. Hmm.

Never looked much into Grado's. Not even sure why. They just never caught my eye. How would they fit in with the others I've brought up? Particularly the P7 as that seems to be made for me. I've tried Momentum over and on ear, NAD HP50's... I think a few others that are escaping me right now.
I have no axe to grind. Some find the on the ear Grados uncomfortable. I solved that with the over the ear G-Cushions. I don't listen that much to rock guitar but folks say that the Grados shine on those kinds of things. As in, fun.

My Current home set up, "the headphones I generally prefer lately". WA7 + WA7tp, PS500s and LCD2(Fazors).
Where does the "U" go in your Head-Fi SetUp?
More clearly, where and on what do you sit/sprawl/lie? Several of the stations are at a desk, which to me implies that you listen while sitting on a desk chair at the desk. Often there is a computer at the desk. Does that mean that you work (or play) at the computer while listening? Do you sit with the attentive posture associated with keyboard typing?
Or do you sit on a big armchair, perhaps that reclines and has a footrest?
I have recently changed from listening at my computer desk to listening in an easy chair. I still have a listening station at each place. It is amazing how much better the system at the lounge chair is to listen to than the desk system.
How about you?
