Lastly, I keep having to last minute travel for work, but going to try to get to CanJam Chicago next month if I don't end up traveling. Looking forward to meeting anyone that also gets a chance to if so.
I’ll be at CanJam Chicago for sure

Excellent! Hope toGood to know! Will definitely PM you and keep you posted if I'm able to. Would be cool to link up!
are you using the ti1b box?
Yup, grabbed the package with the interface. I'll be trying them with the Studio B amp and my EVO or Hegel speaker amps.
I've been listening to the SGL Sr. through the T2 mostly the past few weeks... it is so far ahead and above everything else that it's just not funny. The thing that stands out the most consistently is that the sound is just bigger than life in comparison to everything else.. whether talking the TC, Susvara, x9000, Sr1a, HE90, R10 etc. Just a more huge and engulfing sound, while being the most resolving of anything.
It's not a rock out set of cans at all though. If heavy rock, metal, hip hop etc is your go to, then it likely doesn't fit the bill imo. TC, L3000, Caldera etc. would be much better. The only thing I would mention, is that I recently revisited these genres + other bass heavy/dependent songs and it still ends up being a revelation lol, just with a bit more needed/wanted bass impact. (Also, same is true with the HE90 and R10, which are the two next best headphones I have ever heard)
If you ever get to try the Sr with the Grand Cayman and offer a comparison to the T2 would love to hear that. I have no idea if that amp will be back at CanJam Chicago or not (hope so)
I would absolutely love to. I may reach out to Justin and ask. I'd be a bit hesitant to take any really expensive gear there, but that would absolutely be a treat.
HiFiMan need to make a ShangriLa available for demo to seriously interested parties. It is a BIG ask for someone to make a purchase on the blind.
How does the SGL sr sound on cheaper amps ? Like the kgsshv or something of that tier
Stop talking about the ShangriLa! I do not want to get the itch . I am just sitting here hoping my X9000/T2 still remains supreme.
Let's not forget source - which for me, being primarily in 2 channel land, remains the most important part of the chain. I would like to think my Linn Klimax DS and dCS Rossini "compensate" for the "weakness" of my X9000's.
