Current state of my head-fi station is that I have a green bean stuffed in the gustards 6.3mm output. This is why I don't have a tube amp. Gotta love the kids
Luckily I got it out in one piece so no damage was done. I have a vivid memory of me playing with my dads turntable when I was about four years old. Oh that poor needle... I guess this sort of thing runs in the family.
Finally added some shelves a few months ago and also joined summit-fi. I got the K812 a few months ago.. The HD800S about two weeks ago and the Beyerdynamic T1.2 today..

The T1.2 has better bass than both K812 and HD800S.. and it's good bass not muddy but controlled and deep with just the right amount of thump. Soundstage doesn't seem as wide as the other two but they are very close. The treble is a bit much on certain tracks.. Honestly I have the DT990 600ohm and it almost sounds like a better version of that headphone in every way.

Treble does have some upper energy and I found it does take a bit to settle in fully(sound mostly relaxes a bit and becomes more effortless, treble does get more pleasant too) and it’s very system sensitive in terms of treble like most Beyers. You may not be wrong on it being sort of being like a better DT 990 600 ohm, both have dark mids and a raised upper treble. Mids are more fleshed out on the T1.2 though and treble softer and not near as harsh imho. The DT 990 600 ohm treble sharpness and lack of midrange presence is what made me let those go in the past.

I screwed up on the pic. That was like two months ago.
Here is a more current photo of the collection. I do have a Koss E95X on the way and I ordered an SMSL SP200 last night.
honestly i just mix it up.. but there are like 10 pairs I never listen too at all.. but I’m a mail man so I cycle all my wireless ones.. if I want bass I have a few cans that are bass heavy.. but k812, hd650, hd58x, hd800s, k501 and k712 get the most usage. Maybe I'll really like the t1. My old DT990 used to be my main go to cans..
