[The Actual]

The second one is Neil Peart... not the actual one though, this one is the Head-Fier.

And are you sure the third one is Jude? I don't look at the meet photos too much, but his avatar used to have a picture of him and I thought he looked different. That was a while ago though.

There should be a "legendary pictures" gallery on head-fi. With all of the classic pictures. Starting with the BoseCatOfDoom.

Man, I love putting faces to names! Jude, Tyll and Neil....what a trio. Neil, man, I do love that "blue steel" look you always throw out. You definitely got it down!

Probably the original (low bias) Stax Sigma, or possibly a dynamic version of the Jecklin Floats, based on the prices I've seen recently. The Stax 202 is the cheapest in production "square headphone".

 

[Duggeh]

I got the Jecklin Float 2 for £50
The Jecklin Float 1 for £40
The Stax 2020 for £220

Secondhand on eBay UK.

However, if you buy Floats, they WILL need to be refurbished. Its also much safer to buy the dynamic ones (model 1 and model 2) than the electrostatic ones, which tend to have panels which are utterly ruined by now.

The last pair of Jecklins on eBay went for nearly £90, and they were in the same condition as minewere, so they seem to be getting more popular.

Vintage Stax will go for around the same price as a secondhand 2020 system, depending on model and condition and the amp or energiser they are paired with. But most won't sound as good, and may have technical issues.

Another advantage of the 2020 over vintage models is that the SR-202 headphones are pro-bias. Meaning that you can upgrade to a new Stax amp later on, which significantly improves their performance.
